Fit the equalising tube
Route a length of 4mm clear tube from the fitting on the right of the air mixer box to the
compensator fitting on the right rear of the carburettor as shown in the photos above.
Fit the oil overflow bottle
Clip the oil bottle into the bracket on the
lower right of the firewall.
Fit the oil tube from the engine oil filler
fitting, along the top engine mount and curve
it down to the inlet. Cut the tube to length so
that it will not rub on the inside of the lower
cowling and fit to the oil bottle with a hose
clamp.
Cut a short length of oil tube as shown at
right, so that it can be routed over the lower
engine mount and down. Fit the short length
of alloy tube into the bottom of the outlet
tube with a hose clamp then fit the outlet tube
to the oil bottle with a hose clamp.
Use the supplied saddle clamp to fit the outlet
hose to the firewall as shown at right.
Route the 2 x 4mm clear drain hoses from the fuel pump breather and drain along the lower
engine mount and down through the saddle clamp as shown and trim to the same length as the
oil outlet tube.
