Fuel Senders Installed

Spent the past couple days tweaking the float wires and finally installing both fuel senders. I wanted to get that done NLT today since I'll be working and gone the next 3 days and the ProSeal needs to set for several days. That way I can get the tanks pressure checked next week, remounted in the wings and move on. My borescope again paid for itself by letting me get inside the tanks, observe the float clearances from the top and bottom skins and take photos to document. After pondering the issue and querying the smart folks on the VAF Forum I had some photos of what others had done. I made a precise template mockup with a couple extra bends in the wire to check overall distances and geometry. Then re-bent the wires as needed, remounted in the wings and checked my progress with the borescope. A total of 37 degrees in 2 different bends was all it took to shorten the float arm to get the needed skin clearances. Nice being able to see and photograph that. Then spend time thoroughly prepping and rehearsing mounting the senders with ProSeal. Since the working time is only 60-90 minutes, I needed to have my act together with needed tools, rags, solvents, lighting, etc. I got up early to have plenty of time before leaving for work. Once I started mixing the ProSeal there was no turning back. It truly is a sticky mess to work with. My prep paid off and things went pretty smooth. I got both mounted and hand torqued the screws just enough to slightly ooze out the sealant around the edges. Continuity checks were good. Now it can cure and hopefully will be leak free when I test it.
