May 21, 2017     XNB-G01: Fuel Tank Fit to Frame - (2 hours) Category: Fuel System
Drilled rivets on glare shield firewall angle. Removing firewall angle provides room for tank to move forward in front of stop.
It is my current understanding that the supplied firewall angle was installed to simply hold the glareshield curve during shipping. Will be replaced with the supplied firewall angle SNB-F07-09.
After contacting the factory for a replacement angle, I was told that the supplied angle was an easier installation than the one called out in the plans. Several years later, I understand that Sonex was correct in providing the mount.
Located and drilled for rear tank strap. AN3-20A bolt in drawing is too long. Several years later I regret trying to mount the fuel tank so early in the build without more complete understanding of the kit construction steps.
