Brief Description:  Oil Sump Vent Line and Battery Box Base

Measured location for vent through the firewall. Drilled a 1/4 inch hole at the center of the location in the firewall. Constructed a bracket to fit over the fuselage cross-brace and mount to the brace and firewall with a 1032 bolt. Drilled a 1/4 inch hole using the firewall hole as a pattern. Used a step drill to enlarge the holes in the brace and firewall to 9/16 inch. Installed an AN807-6D fitting with the AN 6 fitting on the engine side of the firewall. Refer to Image 1.

Installed a AN 6 straight fitting on the stainless steel braded hose. Connected the hose to the firewall and measured back to the vent on the oil sump and marked the hose. Wrapped a segment of duct tape around the hose at the marked location. Used a cold chisel and steel bar to cut the stainless steel braded hose at the marked location. Mounted the hose to the oil sump vent using a 3/8 inch hose clamp. Refer to Image 2.

Installed the battery box base on the fuselage by clamping it in place and welding each corner to the frame. Ground off each weld for a smooth finish and then painted the base to match the fuselage. Refer to Image 3.
