Brief Description:  Fuel Servo to Red Cube line

Installed the fuel servo to red cube line, and red cube to fuel divider. From the divider to the red cube, this is a 4" line, from the red cube to the fuel servo, this is a 32" line, which passes through the inter cylinder baffle between #2 and #4. I used a 90-degree angle drill with a short #40 bit to locate the center of the hole required to pass through the baffle, drilling from under the cylinders to make sure I clears the cylinder oil return lines. Following, used a unibit to enlarge the hole with an extension from the top so the oil line passes through.

Fabricated another retention bracket, using another spare bracket, cut down to an appropriate shape for the task. Enlarged the existing hole to 1/4" to accommodate the AN4 engine bolt on top of the sump. Drilled a AN3 bolt size hole for the WDG clamp. Attached the WDG clamp and fuel line to the bracket, bracket is secure to 96" lbs. Routed the fuel line to the rear of the fuel servo where the NPT fitting is located, and secured.
