Rerouted Mixture Cable, Redid Pressure Manifold (Firewall Forward)
1.5 Hours

I took the manifold off and re-did all of the pressure transducers and the couple of fittings that I had sealed with EZ-turn. I used permatex for this instead. I've read about people having leaks on the NPT fittings with EZ-turn, so I wanted to get that out of there. I also switched the fuel pressure fitting from the right side to the left. I found that one of my existing 1/4" hoses worked to route from the fuel pump to here for the fuel pressure reading.

Then, I removed the mixture cable and rerouted it without the twist around the prop cable. I forgot to mention previously that I had trimmed the middle rudder pedal bracket a bit so the mixture cable will clear more easily. I will probably support the cable from here with an adel clamp as well.
