Slot airfoil temp install.

I held up the fuel tank installation because of a $.02 washer I didn’t have. I could have used the original washer, but in the interest of replacing as much of the original hardware as possible, I ordered the $.02 washer and received it today. So now I can finish up the tank installation. Yes, I ordered several parts, not just the one washer.

I almost forgot to hook up wire #37. Thats’s the wire from the fuel sensor to the wing root. That wouldn’t have been fun to connect after I installed the tank. Although there is an inspection hole there I would have had to cut it out.

Primer on after dent removal.

I didn’t see one on the main spar, just the rear spar. Assuming these were marked at the factory when they assembled the wing to keep things straight. Still nice and clear, easy to read.

The garage warmed up enough to work in the fuel attachment points and install the drain grommets and dollies.

I stuck my snake camera into the tank and it’s surprisingly clean inside. Still , I will wash it out.

Cleaning the exterior of the port fuel tank. This small project took all weekend from the first photo to the last. I did do a few other things in between.
