Title: General Stuff
Over two days I had to UN-F^ck some things. 1) had to remove the fuel selector, gascolator and fuel lines so I could re-clock the 45�N fitting for my fuel line attachment 2) day two of messing with trim tabs to get them right, of course the left trim tube that bolts into the horn was not in the bolt hole, so had to UNDO that and then get it lined up and re-bolted 3) my elevator trim horn was just barely rubbing on the left longeron, so had to file a bit off. This was very time consuming doing it without disassembling which would have taken MORE time most likely. I kept filing and testing for contact. Eventually I got it so it did not cut or leave any mark when I put a piece of paper between the longeron and horn. I also had to bend my bar that attaches to the trim tab arm to clear the elevator/horizontal in the full up elevator position. Used a tube bender to get the job done I also gave my fuel caps the New Zealand treatment, this entails drilling a hole in both the upper and lower parts of the fuel cap for a diameter to squeeze fit a roll pin, then enlarge the bottom section to all for the roll pin to easily fit through. Knipex pliers are a must for roll pins
