Brief Description:  Routed and connected all the engine wiring

Ran all the friction taped Rotax engine wiring through the large square hole except for the dark gray generator wire (I had to grind this hole a little more to get the large block connectors through along with all the wiring). Attached the stainless steel hole cover plate on the right side, screwed (replaced with stainless steel screws) and Loctited it down, I then ran the starter power and ground wire along with the start solenoid switch and ground wire, the fuel pressure wire and landing light wire through the smaller round hole on the right side. Attached the square stainless steel cover plates over the square hole, screwed and Loctited it down with stainless steel screws. Pushed in some plastic edge guard to keep the sharp edges of the two haves of the cover plate from cutting into the wiring. Ran the friction tape wiring through the large rubber hold down clamps on the front of main power board bracket, then down to the engine controller. The wires that connect to the Rotax fuse box were a little bit short. I did not want to stretch them tight to allow for engine movement so I remove the back shell of the connector (these are only used to make the connector water tight and because it is inside the cockpit, there is no need for them). The gave me just enough length by bending the wires closed enough to the connectors that I still had some free play in the wires. Connected all the wires to the Rotax fuse box including the generator connectors which I crisscrossed in front of the fuse box. The engine ground wires (including the starter relay ground wire) need to be electrically separate from the rest of the airplane grounds
