Firewall forward

  • Received the replacement oil cooler hose and installed it. 
  • Fabricated and fitted the GPS antenna tray. 
  • Permanently installed the back up alternator, the GPS antenna tray and antennae, and the half Raven tank and breather hose.


Initial temporary install of Plane Power 30 amp back up alternator:

One oil cooler hose installed. The other hose developed a kink while I installed it and had to be re-ordered. I believe that the kink was caused by me not allowing for the twist as the fittings are tightened.

Installed elbow on breather port and started checking fit of the hose to the half Raven input.

Fitting GPS antenna tray:

GPS antenna tray installed then installed half Raven tank / check valve and hose to breather port. Half Raven sump and breather hose will be installed later.
