Mounting the Engine

Step 5. Determine the proper location for the throttle pushrod.
Mark the location with a felt-tipped pen or pencil and drill the
firewall for the pushrod tube using a drill and 1/8" drill bit.
Remove the engine if necessary.
Step 6. Test fit the throttle pushrod tube through the firewall
and into the fuselage. Once satisfied with the fit, mix 1/4 ounce
of 6-minute epoxy and glue the pushrod into the firewall. Allow
the epoxy to cure.
Hint: If you removed the engine to install the
throttle pushrod tube, reinstall it at this time
while the epoxy cures.

Step 7. Once the epoxy has cured, install the fuel tank into the
front of the fuselage. The stopper and fuel tubes should come
through the round hole cut in the firewall. Use RC foam to hold
the tank in place and protect against vibration.
