Section 18: Throttle Pushrod and Fuel Tank
Step 4
Install the throttle pushrod into the tube and connect it to
the throttle arm. You may need to remove the throttle
control arm of the carburetor to connect the Z-bend
to the throttle arm.
Step 5
Wrap the fuel tank with 1/4" foam. Secure the foam
using masking tape.
Step 6
Connect the two pieces of fuel tubing to the fuel tanks
pickup and vent tubes. Install the fuel tank into the
fuselage from the radio compartment. The stopper
and fuel tubes will pass through the round hole in the
firewall. Use more foam to hold the tank in place and
protect from vibration.
Hint
: Connect the red tube to the vent and
the green tube to the pickup.
Important
: The Saito 200TI will require a new
hole drilled in the firewall for the fuel tank
stopper and fuel lines.
Note
: Make the proper connections
to the engine using the engine
manufacturer’s instructions.
