Brief Description: Cowl Bracket, Throttle Quadrant
|
|
Installed the lower cowl, to fit the aft cowl support bracket. Removed and drilled, then I preped the parts for priming, primed and riveted it together. That small bracket has 4 different size rivets. Amazing. Then I got some help from my son Jack, and got the prop cable installed. I knew it would be painful, as I had to remove the atachment from the prop govenor arm, remove the cable so we could access it and twist it on to the prop lever atachment, then, reinstall the cable and check for proper operation. Luckily, there was just enough play in the forward bracket jam nuts to get the full travel. Then I tightened all the jam nuts for all the cables, both on the engine and in the cockpit. Then I thought about putting on the firewall pass throughs, and realized that I needed to put those on the cables before installing... so I'll have to take the cable off the engine side, install the pass through rings, and then re attach it. Not a big deal, but will take some time some other day.... while I continue waiting for the panel.
