Brief Description:  Throttle/Mixture cables, rear throttle linkage, fu

I couldn't stand it anymore...I had to have that throttle quadrant finished. I'm hoping Van's was pretty close on their cable penetration locations. I'm betting it will be fine...

Hooked up the linkage from the rear throttle to the front. Pretty easy except for that front cotter pin...someone at Van's likes contortionists I'm thinking.

Also, wasn't happy with how tight the right wing fuel line hugged against the side skin, so took it apart and bent it a bit more so that there is some flex to account for wing flex during my 10g yankin & bankin...

Edit - Nice job on getting the throttle/mixture cables done...never to be messed with again. Then I met Jim and his group and they have convinced me of the wonderful attributes of constant speed. Damn it. Anyway, I'll pull it back out at some point and put the constant speed lever back in and run the cable.
