Oil overflow bottle
Fibreglass moulded oil bottle mounting.
The oil overflow bottle, as shown in
the photo on the right, fits into a
fibreglass bracket that is mounted on
the lower right side of the firewall.
Position the oil bottle with the
bracket fitted so that the inlet line
from the engine oil filler will curve
smoothly down to the top fitting in
the oil bottle without rubbing against
the inside of the cowl, and so that the
outlet from the oil bottle can be
routed over the lower engine mount
as shown in the photo at right.
Mark the position of the bracket,
then remove the oil bottle from the
bracket and drill 2 x 5/32” holes in
the flat back part of the bracket.
Place the bracket on the marks and
drill through the firewall and fit the
bracket with 2 x 5/32” rivets with
plain washers behind.
Remove the oil bottle and set aside for later fitting in the
Post-Paint>Fuselage>Firewall
forward>Final assembly
task.
