Brief Description: More wiring,and found a problem with the port fuel
Tackled a few differnt tasks today.. fitted the flap lever system, safety wired it and sealed the nuts. Was going to fit the flap actuator arms but they need additional paint work as they were scratched during initial fitting. 2k primer applied, and drying off overnight. Can bus to GMU 11 manufactured, and the wiring to the roll servo installed. Installed the sender wire from the heated pitot.
Decided to fit the OAT probe, so moved the wings out to gain access and got a surprise... a row of rivet heads had paint lifting off, suggesting a leak in the tanks. After what I thought was effective pressure testing, I was a bit perplexed. I sanded the paint off the row of rivets (rear tank wall lower attachment). I reattached the pressure monitoring system and pressuriesed the tank again... as the day got warmer, the tank volume increased. After 3 hours, still no obvious leak. Sent pictures to Van's to ask for advice. Have to wait and see what happens overnight. Had to buy a thermometer/brometer to check tank volume against air temp and pressure.
