Subject: | Firewall penetrations |
--> RV7-List message posted by: "Jekyll" <rcitjh@aol.com>
Looking for some insights on installing a vertical sump IO-360 on a 7A. I ordered
a TMX-IO-360 and have my FWF kit. Vans had me get the O-360 FWF with several
adjustments. I installed my boost pump and filter per the Vans drawing but stopped
short of plumbing the feed line from the pump to the firewall because I
couldn't determine where to penetrate. The Vans drawing are for horizontal sump
IOs.
My first question was whether the gascolator was used with the IO installation.
A search of old threads indicates it is optional but recommended. So I guess
I'll be adding that.
Does the Vans gascolator work with the IO engines?
The next question is where do I penetrate the FW? The IO FWF shows the penetration
more to the center than does the O-360 drawing (lower right corner at the
gascolator). I'm sure many builders have crossed this bridge already so I would
appreciate some hints.
I'm thinking the gascolator and FW penetration should be per the O-360 drawing,
is that right?
Any other penetration peculiarities I should expect?
