9. Follow your manufacturer's directions for connecting the
grounding wire, spark plug wire and ignition to the engine.

Fuel Tank Assembly (Gas Engine)

1. Assemble the stopper, tubes and metal plates. Solder
the fuel line barbs (included) onto the ends of the short
tubes. Bend the brass vent/overflow tube upward so it will
be at the top of the tank. Use the stopper that is compatible
with gas.
2. Connect the fuel tubing to the short tubes and the
clunks–be certain the tubing is cut to a length so that the
clunks will not contact the back of the tank–otherwise they
may become stuck. Note that one of the lines will be used
for fueling and defueling and the other line will be the pickup
line that goes to the carburetor. The bent tube will be the
vent/overflow line that will be connected to a line that exits
the bottom of the fuselage. Important: Secure both ends of
the fuel tubing with small nylon ties (not included). This is an
important measure that must be taken to be sure the lines
remain attached inside the tank.
3. Write "TOP" on the back of the tank so you will know
which way to install it after you have inserted the stopper
assembly. Insert the stopper so the vent line will be at the
top of the tank. Then, tighten the screw to squish the
stopper and seal the tank. Shake the tank to make sure the
clunks can move and the fuel lines are not too long. If
necessary, remove the stopper and shorten the lines.
