Hi ALL:

I'm working in the stub wing area on the LNC2 (doing the latest SB) and
while I have it apart I'm running my fuel lines into the cockpit. The plan
is to run 3/8" hard lines just behind the forward spar, through the cockpit
closeout rib and into the selector valve. I bought the Andair valve and now
I'm trying to locate it in the center console area. Boy do things get
cramped in here!! I'm dealing with the control stick assembly and elevator
push rod and find myself wondering how the rest of you did this plumbing. I
plan to mount the valve as low as possible and then use an extension piece
to the selector knob. Even with the valve and all the lines below the
elevator push rod I'm, still having a hard time getting it all to fit. How
close to the push rod is too close anyway? Any other ideas on where I could
locate this valve are also welcome.

Thanks,

Doug


[An alternate location for the valve that was put forth here awhile back
was inside the console itself, toward the rear of the assembly, above
the elevator pushrod.  What about above the front spar, right below the
power controls at the front of the console?            <Marv>        ]
