Brief Description: Fuel System Install #2 / Naca Scoop
- Scuffed, cleaned, and primed the naca scoop. - Pro-sealed and riveted the scoop to fwd left skin - Manufactured the left fuel tank vent line. (1/4" tubing) Used coat hanger wire to make a template for the bends. Used up some tubing getting profficient with the tubing flaring tool and tubing bender. - Next installed the bulkhead fitting in the firewall and made the fuel pump to firewall tube (3/8" tubing). FIrst one i made was too short. Second one was too long and collapsed when I tried to bend it too much. Third one finally worked. I figured I used about 4 foot of tubing to make an 8" tube, so I put in an order for more tubing... - Mounted the fuel selector valve. - Also tried to make the tightly cuved line that goes from the filter to the fuel selector valve. After several attempts, I gave up and added some coil spring tubing benders to my tubing order...
