Test fit the stopper assembly into the tank. It may
be necessary to remove some of the flashing around
the tank opening using a modeling knife. If flashing is
present, make sure none of it falls into the tank.
When satisfied with the alignment of the stopper
assembly tighten the 3mm x 20mm machine screw
until the rubber stopper expands and seals the tank
opening. Do not over tighten the assembly as this
could cause the tank to split.
Using a modeling knife, cut 3 lengths of fuel line.
Connect 2 lines to the 2 vent tubes and 1 line to the
fuel pickup tube in the stopper.
Feed three lines through the fuel tank
compartment and through the pre-drilled hole in the
firewall. Pull the lines out from behind the engine,
while guiding the fuel tank into place. Push the fuel
tank as far forward as possible, the front of the tank
should just about touch the back of the firewall.
Blow through one of the lines to ensure the fuel lines
have not become kinked inside the fuel tank
compartment. Air should flow through easily.
INSTALLING THE ENGINE
Do not secure the tank into place permanently
until after balancing the airplane. You may need to
remove the tank to mount the battery in the fuel tank
compartment.
