Brief Description: Install Voltage Regulators, Oil Pressure Sensor
1412 - 1612
Finished installing voltage regulators.
Attach 18 AWG wire to regulator ground. This ground stud is not easily accessible without removing the regulators. The wire was terminated with the specified ring terminal.
The regulators were secured to the subpanel with AN3 bolts.
Upon reinstalling the avionics fan, it was noted that the fan was interfering with the MP sensor tubing. The tubing was removed and reinstalled in a manner that does not interfere with the fan.
As a note, Loctite 567 thread sealant was used on all threaded pipe connections.
The oil pressure sensor line was installed next. Due to numerous recommendations, I opted to mount the oil pressure sensor on an engine mount tube using the Showplanes clamp mount. An optimum position for the clamp was located, the hose fitting were tightened, and the clamp was tightened. Clamp screws were torqued to 25 inlb per instructions.
