Brief Description:  Starter wire, Fuel Flow sensor

I decided a final place for the fuel line from the fuel control to the flow divider; this line also has the Fuel Flow sensor in line with it. I had run this location by Don at Air Flow Performance (the maker of my injection system) and he liked this location for the line and sensor. He thought I might use one clamp on the motor mount but that line flops too much so I added a second clamp. There is still some flex to account for engine movements. The line uses cushion clamps and a 1” spacer to bring up the line. I used a Molex connector to make the connection to the EFIS and wrapped with heat shrink tubing. These slow sensors do go bad so my thought here is the part needs to be changed out without cutting the wires that run to the EFIS.

Well the starter and main alternator wiring is done. I hooked up the starter wire after clamping it to two bolts on the front of the oil sump. With this done I stated to figure out how to hold the wires together. I have some lace tie but I don’t think that will work in the hot environment of the engine compartment. I wrapped the wires with silicone tape and plan to use some high temperature zip ties, unless I find that there is a lace tie that works.

The last thing I did today was to permanently install the fuel control. It was held up for the fitting of the lines with temporary hardware. I removed the fuel control cleaned the surfaces and then installed with the gasket and supplied all metal lock nut with washers. After setting the torque I marked with torque seal.
