Oct 16, 2022     Rt Main fuel tank complete       Category: Fuel System
The fuel sender Ohms readings from last week are fine per Sling Technical.

This past week I finished putting the back of the main fuel tank on. It took a lot longer than expected and I would not have finished without my wife's help so a big shout out to Sayo. I let the tank sit for a few days and then did a leak check with a ballon and then a homemade manometer for about a day. I am happy to report there are no leaks.

After that I started working on the landing lights, I worked more on the lens and the lens frame, painted the surrounding area black. I ordered and installed some electrical connectors. I had to decide what kind of connectors I was going to use and ended up deciding to use the same connectors that Midwest Builders uses.

I also started mounting the control box for the GAP26 pitot probe and had to order some connectors for that.

Lastly I went to go and bend some fuel line for the right side extended range tank and it turns out the fuel line bender I had didnt fit the line so I had to order a bigger fuel line bender. Once the bender came in i started bending away and you can see in the pictures, I think it came out pretty good.
