the firewall. Pull the lines out from behind the
engine, while guiding the fuel tank into place.

the front of the tank should just about touch the
back of the firewall. Blow through one of the
lines to ensure the fuel lines have not become
kinked inside the fuel tank compartment. Air
should flow through easily.

outs using a rotary tool with a cutting disc and a
rotary sanding drum attachment.

the cowl with the crankshaft of the engine. The
front of the cowl should be positioned so the
crankshaft is in the middle of the precut
opening. Hold the cowl firmly in place using
several pieces of masking tape.

four 1,6mm pilot holes through both the cowl
and the side edges of the firewall.

the fiberglass from splitting when the mounting
screws are installed.

it in place using four 3mm x 12mm wood
screws.
