24. Glue the throttle and choke outer pushrod tubes
to the former.
❏
25. Place the ignition module on a piece of R/C foam
rubber and secure it to the top of the air tank tray with
four rubber bands. Route the battery wire for the ignition
module through the hole in the tray.
❏
26. Install the on/off switch and the charge jack in
the air tank tray.
❏
27. Wrap the ignition battery in R/C foam rubber and
connect it to the ignition on/off switch. We positioned
our ignition battery behind the fi rewall, using a couple
of sticks to hold it securely. Depending on the size of
your ignition battery, the location may vary.
ASSEMBLE AND INSTALL
THE FUEL TANK
❏
1. Assemble the fuel tank stopper assembly with the
Tygon fuel tubes (not included) as shown. The easiest
way is to fi rst solder a fuel line barb (not included) onto
one end of all three tubes. Insert the tubes into the
stopper with the metal plates, and then solder a barb
onto the other end of the two short tubes. Bend the vent
tube and connect the pickup and fueling/defueling lines
(not included) to the short tubes. Connect the clunks to
the lines and secure the lines to the clunk and brass
tubing with the small tie straps.
❏
2. Install the fuel tank stopper assembly in the fuel
tank. Check that the clunks move around freely in the
fuel tank. Tighten the fuel tank stopper screw. Mark the
top of the fuel tank (the side the vent tube is on).
❏
3. Position the fuel tank in the fuselage and determine
how you want to run the fuel line. Drill holes where
necessary in the fi rewall for the line going to the
carburetor and the vent line. The third fi ll line can be
routed up through the air tank tray. Install an aluminum
fuel line plug in the fi ll line. Secure the fuel tank in the
fuselage with the rubber bands.
