  • Cylinder Type Gascolator

    Anyone know a source for the glass cylinder used in the "Cylinder Type" gascolator. Mine is cracked...I was going to go flying Saturday and when I turned the main fuel on I noticed it leaking.....It was cracked from top to bottom! (Glass). I would like to relace it with brass or aluminum if possible, but will settle for a new glass one for now (it's pyrex I think)....how it cracked? I don't know...but it was kinda scary.

        Piece of thick wall stainless tubing? Balance between no seeing inside and not ever worrying about cracks...
