I haven't a clue as to how to check the Gretz for leaks prior to installation. But as to wiring in the wings, if you're going to put in a roll servo for autopilot you should run the wires now as the bundle of several wires would be easier. Also, many have elected to mount an OAT probe on one of the inspection plates in the wing (additional wires).

I have a Gretz heated pitot and somebody recommended I check it for leaks before installing. I guess this is where I'm showing my lack of knowledge.....How do I check it for leaks???
Also, does anybody have a list of items that should be done before riveting on the bottom wing skins? I have the Vans conduit installed with a couple strings pulled through each wing/conduit. I'll be using the gretz heated pitot as mentioned above. Some sort of LED NAV/POS lighting in the wingtips (not sure what yet--any recommendations) and the duckworks leading edge landing/taxi lighting in the wingtips, vans stall warning, etc.... I'm sure I'm leaving something out. Just curious if anybody had a list on any websites that may be a good idea to complete before bottom skins. Don't really plan on pulling wires yet but would atleast like to pull strings through to make wiring easier later.
Thanks in advance,
Bill
