Disregard everyone. When I put them in the right way around the F804G fit
okay. I was on a night shift last night, that's my excuse and I'm sticking
to it.
After putting in a couple of the wrong rivets and trying to explode my rivet
gun with 100psi I'm calling it a day, before I burn the place down.
Tomorrow I'd better check what else I did today.

open up the holes.

so now the top F804E is riveted in place it interferes with the F804G and
therefore the holes seem out of alignment.

(about 1/32") this would mean a sloppy fit between the F804Es but the bolt
holes will retain their tolerance.

Anyone else had fun with Van's wiring harness? I had the harness for the firewall-mounted
battery and changed my mind. Rather than horse around unbundling
wires, I just ordered the correct harness when I got the FWF kit, thinking that,
as long as I stuck with the plans on where to mount things, the harness should
bundle all the wires where they should go, right?
Well, either this rat's nest is somebody's idea of a joke, or I've got the plans
upside-down.
For example, the wires to the alternator, mags and the voltage regulator are, according
to the plans, the only ones exiting the right side of the firewall into
the engine compartment. However, there are a whole boatload of wires bundled
alongside, some longer than the mag and v. regulator wires. And, right alongside
them are the wires that are supposed to exit the LEFT side of the firewall.
Am I supposed to just cut apart the bundles and string the wires where they need
to go? If so, then what's the point of a wiring harness in the first place??
Sheesh ...
Since Van's is usually right and I'm usually wrong, somebody please tell me where
I goofed up.

Uh ... never mind.
I think this one falls into the I-had-it-upside-down-and-probably-backwards category.
Please disregard my plea for help. This time.
There WILL be more to come ...

Don:
My reply was gonna be: Maybe you have it reversed. I did the same thing.
When I got it figured out, it fit perfectly.

Thanks, Al. Now my biggest concern is why I have two wires headed toward
the tail labeled "P9". The plans call for a P8 & a P9 for the flap motor.
Maybe I'll figure it out on a new day when I'm not tired of looking at
little numbers on little wires.
