Mar 06, 2023 Secured throttle cable Category: Engine
While looking over the instructions on the throttle cable (as a result of looking at the photos of Lockwood's RV-12iS), I realized I didn't have a double Adel clamp on the engine mount to secure it and keep it from rubbing against the mount. Maybe I had it on before I had to take the engine off to replace the mount but I don't think so. So I installed the clamp and, of course, it took about 2 hours, evoking surgeons in an operating room. I also adjusted the White Lightning cable to allow the overflow bottle to fit back in, I put some heat shrink on the end of the throttle cable, and I secured more wiring with some tie wraps.

Also secured the pitot line to an Adel clamp, wrapping it first in some rescue tape. We'll see how that works out.

Unfortunately, I can't find the terminal kit for the White Lightning, which I'd brought home to read and then put somewhere. So I had to order another one. $25 plu $20 shipping. Ridiculous.
