I am having difficulty routing the mixture cable from the carb to the cockpit. Presently the lever operates in such a way as to put the oil sump directly in its way. I think I have the wrong lever on the carb. The number is 155-28. Does anybody know what part # I should have? Cheers Peter Wonthaggi Australia ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 04:14:47 AM PST US From: GLENN JOHNSON Subject: RE: Continental-List: MS3SPA on an O-200 Hi Peter I had to route my mixture for my O-200 from center firewall toward the pass enger side=2C under the exhaust the then down to the back side of the Marve l carb. I ended up making a bracket and bolting it to the bolts that suppo rt the oil sump(not the rings of nuts). I used a "generic" throttle and mi xture cable and then cut them to length very carefully as these cables can' t be taken apart as the "locking" mechanism will come apart. Bottom line i s do not let the cable rub anywhere (I used lots of cable supports) and sec ure it near the carb so that it will no flex when pushed. I have to say my plane was easy to buold until I got to the canopy (poor in struction) and firewall forward (no instruction) especially since I did not buy a firewall forward kit. Hope this helps.

I still feel the lever is not the correct one for the O-200 (P/N 155-28 written on it, what's yours?). I managed to borrow one of Jon Crookes DVD's for the canopy installation. It was much better than the manual. The firewall forward kit from Zenith is the cowling and engine mount. The rest is up to you.
