Brief Description:  Fabricate Fuel Supply Lines

1206 - 1506

I decided to reverse the installed direction of the pushrod bolts on the control stick base to provide additional clearance with the base mont at full aileron/elevator displacement.

Remove one pushrod bolt on each control stick base, reinstall it from the opposite direction.

Torque bolts and install cotter pins through the castle nuts.

Fabricate fuel supply lines from tank to pre filter on each side from 5052 3/8" aluminum tube. Double flares were used throughout. I had to make the left line over 2 times due to defect in flare face. The cause of the defect was a tiny burr on the flaring cone. I buffed the cone smooth and the flares are fine now.

Install AN 90 degree fitting into the return bung fittings in each tank. NPT threads were sealed with Permatex. Using a 90 here facilitates a U shaped connection for the return line.
