Two steps forward, one step back today. Made a bracket for the mixture cable to attach to tthe bottom of the Cold Air Sump, |
|
then attached two Adel clamps to that bracket. Verified controls work and direction is correct. Installed the firewal eyeball for the |
|
mixture. On the Prop cable I found I could utilize on of the mounting brackets made for the fuel hoses. I needed to remove the |
|
bracket and drill it for an AN3 bolt then attach an adel clamp to it and reattach it to the sump, and then reattach the two Adel |
|
clamps holding the fuel line. with limited access, it took quite a bit of time. I had to make a run to the parts store in the middle to |
|
pick up some DG3 & DG14 clamps to secure the cables after they are set to final position. Had to ocut the prop controller safety |
|
wires and repositin the arm slightly, then resafetied the screws. When attempting to do the Throttle, which I thought was going to |
|
be straight forward, I found that with the orientation of the fuel servo as I had it mounted, the throttle arm moves in the WRONG |
|
direction, i.e. pushing on the control closes the throttle!!!!. I took everything off, hoses. mixture etc. and tried positioning the |
|
servo in several other 90 degree orientations, with the mixture diaphram on the bottom it interfers with the cowl, with it on the |
|
side it will require an elaborate bracket for the mixture, I ended up putting it back in the original orientation, and I figure I'll need |
|
to route the throttle cable differently, and I'll have to do some sort of extension to the throttle control arm to get it moved outboard |
|
some more. This seems to be the best approach, stay tuned.. |
