Barry and others
The corrugated nylon conduit that I received from Van's measured 3/4 inch OD
in the bottom of the corrugations. I used a unibit to cut 3/4 inch dia holes
in each rib centered one inch below the upper rib flange and six and one
half inches aft of the rib to spar flange. After deburring the holes, I
slit the conduit lengthwise for the full length of the wing. Starting at
the tip rib, I rolled one edge of the conduit inside the other to feed it
through the ribs all the way to the root rib. Again starting at one end, I
stretched each segment in turn by a small amount to eliminate any droop or
slack in the conduit, making sure that the edges were back together in each
rib hole. It was tedious and time consuming, but it gave a nice snug
installation, open to any rib bay, and should preclude any appreciable rib
to conduit working.

Leland, that bothers me to... I was going to rely on passenger briefing to
cover it, but now you've made me think that a physical barrier to protect
the fuel line might be a good idea....like a recycled toaster grill modified
to fit over it?

You've got 3 terminals on it. Which ones do I use for the Hobbs, and which for
an oil pressure warning light.. and is the other to ground? No markings on it
and no diagram either. I suppose at 4 psi I'll get a circuit on one terminal,
and not on another?

Dean, the splitting of the tube is a nice touch. I put a dab of
proseal, here and there to 'keep' it firm. The only trick I would
recommend is...DO THE DRILLING OF HOLES in the ribs, before riveting to
the spars. Much easier de-burring.

Most people don't cut the conduit open, but rather, just work it through the
progression of holes, only cutting openings where wires need to exit. Be sure
to add a drop of adhesive (weatherstrip, Auto-Goop, or ProSeal, etc.) at the
point where the conduit passes through each rib. This dampens vibration and
reduces the chances of eventual chaffing all the way through the conduit.
