 Posted: Sun May 23, 2010 8:44 pm Post subject: Cowl/engine interference? |
 |
|
Just did the cowl fitting this weekend, and it looks like I have an interference issue with the mixture arm (Silver Hawk FI system) and cowl. Anyone else have this problem? I have only about 1/4" clearance, which doesn't seem like enough. I've heard of interference issues with the FAB, but not cowl.
I also have a problem with the fuel line for the #2 cylinder being only 1/8-1/4" from the top cowl--will be calling Aero Sport about that tomorrow.

Rob,
I remember lowering the spider for the same reason. I think I just turned the bracket over and trimmed as necessary. Lots of room now.

Thanks, Dave... the spider is fine; it's the "loop up" right before the line goes into the #2 cylinder that's the problem. I figure the line can probably be adjusted/moved, but want to get Aero Sport's take on it, so I don't break anything.
Man, your oil door sure is nice
