We are getting too much voltage drop with that long #2 wire and should be running
#1 or 0. The lycoming supplied starter would work fine then.

Something is wrong with the circuit. #2 wire should be more than
adequate. Vans supplies #2 for connection battery to master relay,
master relay to starter relay and starter relay to starter. My Mooney
has the battery behind the baggage compartment with same #2 wire. Same
length run. Took me some work to eliminate all high resistance
connections, but once I got all connections clean, air tight, the
performance issues went away. I do have a PM starter and they have HUGE
current draws compared to other design starters. The Skytec trouble
shooting chart is good for determining where the problem originates.
If there is too much voltage drop in that one cable there is a problem
with the connection at one end or the other or in the ground return. #2
will carry the current needed without excessive voltage drop. You have
to ensure there are good tight crimped connectors and tight connections.
I suppose you could have a relay with excessive voltage drop.

I am wiring the tail light and find that there are no holes for a grommet thru
the bulkhead. Are we drill the bulkhead? or are there other thoughts... Thanks

Anyone know if someone sells a mounting bracket for the Matco parking brake
valve? I am a poor designer and even worse at fabricating so looking for
short cut.

I drilled a hole for the wires and installed pastic grommets. Having just rewired
the tail strobelight I would probably go with a very lightweight plastic conduit
through the large lightening holes next time to make future changes much
easier.

Along the bottom, offset to the side from the holes for the rudder
cables. I think they were1/2" but not sure. Just large enough to run
the wires for the lights. Again, I would recommend the very thin walled
PVC pipe or similar down the lightening holes if I were to do it again.
I used that in the wings and was glad I did.

Hi all
-
I want to order the fuse kit in the next couple of weeks and just received
the fuselage list from Anne @ Vans.
-
After going over it fairly closely, there are a few things I want to change
out.
-
1) The aluminum cabin heat box for stainless.- I have found 2 aftermarket
manufacturers.- Plane Innovations and Aviacomp International.- Anyone
have an opinion on either?- I believe the Aviacomp is about $20 more each
.
-
2) Vans fuel valve for the Andair, which I have already bought.- The list
shows the valve in bag #487-1, but plans show it as VA178G.- I assume th
ey are one and the same.
-
3) There are 2 brake hoses listed, F8105, which attach to the master cylind
ers and go up to the firewall.- Have others replaced these with aftermark
et?
-
4) Has anyone replaced the 3003 soft aluminun tube than comes with the kit
with 5052-0 rigid tubing that runs from the firewall to the gear legs?
-
Anyother opinions or recomendations-are welcome. Thx in advance.

The ones from Aviacomp weight 10.57 ounces each. The ones from Plane
Innovations LLC weigh 6.08 ounces each. That's almost 9 ounces more for
Aviacomp for the pair. May not seem like much, but every ounce adds up.
And Plane Innovations has them in stock, ready to ship.

I drilled approx 5/16" hole on lower lh side. Outside of vs mounting area so that
it could be inst/removed w/o pulling wires. Sanded hole with 320 grit and installed
heat shrink at pass thru for extra protection.

For those still building, it is a easy step to fabricate side panels to
hide wires and make the forward lower fuse side look better. A previous
builder gave me this idea. Probably could be done at any time but was
easy when building. Just got back from flying about including 26 eastern
states, down the Hudson River, up the Mississippi River, with 100
landings and 89 new airports including KFFA (Kill Devil Hills) and KBFI
(Boeing Field in downtown Seattle). Total 91 hours and 6 weeks. This is
a great airplane. Have only 2 of the 57 states left to land in. Probably
