Spent most of morning working on fuel leaks and going through comm/radio check list. For whatever reason, I've had no comm Rx since radio installed. I did determine at one time I needed to enlarge pass-through hole in AC frame to allow better BNC connection. Today, I couldn't figure out why no comm Rx when all basic tests showed wiring was correct. So decided to double check antenna cable......ya know....when the antenna cable IS connected to the antenna, you can get reception.....DUH!!!. Antenna cable laying on floor of cargo.
More torque on couple of copper crush gaskets fixed couple of leaks and then another popped out. Had to remove fitting into main fuel line for fuel pressure, dry, clean and use more thread sealer. Then the moment came......On fourth try, the engine started and ran.fine. 88 psi oil pressure.
