164. Remove the fuel tank fl oor from the fuselage by
removing the four screws with a #1 Phillips screwdriver.
Secure the ignition module in the fuselage. Use a
hook and loop strap to ensure its location. Make any
connections using the instructions provided with the
engine.
 The ignition module can also be located
anywhere in the fuselage that it is convenient.
 The ignition battery and/or the receiver battery
can also be mounted in this location if necessary.
165. Replace the fuel tank fl oor and connect the leads
between the engine and ignition module.
166. Mount the switch for the receiver and ignition module in
the fuselage. The switches will be on opposite sides of
the fuselage when installed. Secure a 3-inch (150mm)
extension to the receiver switch using commercially
available fastener (SPMA3054) to connect the switch to
the receiver battery.
167. Use sandpaper to lightly sand the length of the throttle
pushrod tube. Use a paper towel and isopropyl alcohol to
remove any oils or debris from the tube.
168. Use medium CA to glue the tube in the fi rewall. Leave
1 3 / inch (19mm) of the tube exposed forward of the
4
fi rewall.
 Make sure the CA does not enter the tube, which
could make the installation of the pushrod wire difficult.

169. Slide the throttle pushrod into the pushrod tube. Connect
the Z-bend in the throttle pushrod to the carburetor arm.
It may be necessary to remove the engine for this step.
Bend the pushrod slightly so it moves without binding.
170. Mount the throttle servo connector in the throttle servo
arm so it is 7/16-inch (11m) from the center of the
servo arm. Place a drop of canopy glue on the M2 nut,
then install it on the underside of the arm to secure the
connector.
 It may be necessary to enlarge the hole in the
servo arm so the connector can rotate freely.
171. Without the servo arm on the servo, switch on the radio
system and center the throttle stick and trim. Install the
servo arm on the servo parallel to the servo centerline.
172. Move the carburetor to the mid-throttle position and
tighten the setscrew securing the pushrod to the
connector at the servo.
173. Check the operation of the carburetor using the radio
system. Move the throttle stick to full throttle.
