(tonyvaccarella) ________________________________ Message 1 _____________________________________ Time: 12:51:50 PM PST US From: Rowland Carson Subject: Europa-List: oil tank auxiliary bracket The firewall-forward manual for the XS describes how to make the main curved oil tank support bracket from a flat sheet of steel. However, my FWF kit came with a ready-shaped bracket (which is nice - it looks quite tedious to make it from scratch!). However, what I dont seem to have is the L-shaped bracket that bridges the cutaway in the composite firewall and secures it to the top of the footwell. Obviously I should have had either the ready-made L bracket or the material to make it from, but I cant find anything answering to either of those descriptions. Does anyone know if the Europa factory ever supplied a ready-bent L bracket and what the part number might be? If its not supplied ready-bent, I might find it handier to source a piece of steel locally (or maybe even find a bit in the might come in handy pile . . .). All suggestions welcome. in friendship Rowland | Rowland Carson ... that's Rowland with a 'w' ... | http://www.rowlandcarson.org.uk | Skype, Twitter: rowland_carson Facebook: Rowland Carson ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 04:42:33 PM PST US Subject: Re: Europa-List: oil tank auxiliary bracket From: AUVRAY Michel Hello all, After craks on the original main oil tank bracket, I have made a small mod and now no problems.

Trim Tab built upside down - Seriously !! From: "tonyvaccarella" Having spoken to a few builders this in fact seems like the most logical thing. I certainly appear to have egg on my face if this is confirmed. I will swap their position when I get back from the Oz-Kosh airshow in Narromine NSW.
