Bernie,
Here is a thought - assuming based on your inspection today that all fuel connections under the cowl are tight and no hose leaks. IF your tanks has the external tank vent line that Van calls for - is it possible that during your fuel transfer that you may have transfer sufficient fuel to over fill the one tank and to cause some excess fuel to flow out the vent line? Recall the vent line exits (at least on my RV-6A) right behind the bottom of the cowling. That's what I would bet on.

Hi Ed,
Thans for the thought but keep thinking! My return tank is not half full
so do not believe it was blowing out the standard Van's vent lines.
Can not find any loose fittings nor leaky hoses.
How would you pressurise the system to a higher pressure to see if
something developes without damaging injectors or regulator?
Right now, my best guess it that there was a dry joint that leaked. Had
not run engine in about 2 weeks.
Bernie
