Fuel Tank - Kangke HOWARD DGA 15 Assembly Manual

Now, attempt to attach muffler to engine. You
will have to carefully mark and cut out part of
the fuselage / cowl mounting ring to make it fit.
Mount the muffler with gasket and use lock-tite
on the muffler bolts.
Line up the throttle linkage and drill a hole in
firewall so that the linkage will generally line up
with servo location inside fuselage. PLEASE
ensure that if you are using a gas engine that the
linkage is of a Nyrod type. Connect linkage to
servo and test for binds, etc. ALSO note that the
throttle linkage throw on gas engines is usually
much less then on glow engines.
Now carefully mark and cut out appropriate
holes in cowl for choke / cylinder head and
muffler. Ensure that no parts of the engine
assembly are touching the cowl.
Trial fit until you are satisfied with the final
product.
The ignition for this engine is mounted INSIDE
the fuselage and a hole was drilled in the bottom
of the fuselage to allow exit for the plug wire.
The other ignition wire is passed through the
existing firewall hole. The battery wire is run
through a switch, then a separate 6 volt battery.

Fuel Tank

Please ensure that if you are using gasoline
that you purchase a GAS CONVERSION
STOPPER.
Assemble the tank using the conversion stopper
and fuel line for gasoline. For this project, I used
a 3 line setup. Carb/Fill/Breather.
Once assembled, install on cabin floor shelf
using a quick tie wrap,
Feed the lines out to engine bay area. I drilled a
hole in the bottom fuse / cowl ring for the
breather line and used a fuel dot mounted on the
left side again on the fuse / cowl ring.
