get the vent tube in or near the “bubble”. Tighten
the screw until the stopper is tight in the opening.
It is best to label the vent and carb lines with a felt
tip marker on the outer plate to avoid confusion
later.
Place a 1/4-inch bead of RTV type silicone around
the tank stopper. Carefully slide the tank into
position through the fuselage. Press it gently
against the back of the firewall
Apply a small amount off RTV silicone around the
tank at the fuselage bulkhead. Do not make one
continuous bead, as the silicone is used as a
vibration absorber. Several small spots will work
better and be lighter.

Slide on the tail wheel. Press the retaining tube on
the axle and secure with one small drop of thin
CA. {
Be sure not to get any CA on the wheel
