I got started today with switching the landing lights wires. I had found that wires #213 & 214 were switched so I relocated them and the landing light is now steady when selected for steady and pulsing when selected for pulsing.
I started working on the PAP's. T helped me some through the process. We went through most of G1. The lights and brakes passed. I did notice the trim moved faster then recommended, so I will have to adjust that. I also noticed that the trim seemed to be moving in the opposite direction as should be. (In further research it may be that the plans on page 31B-04 may be incorrect for the wires in #31 & 32 position.)
Most of PAP G2 was then checked working with the flight controls. The cable tension was re-checked and adjusted,
G3 seats and restraints were checked.
G4 cowl was taken off and throttle, choke, and cabin heat was checked. The spinner was then taken off. An oil purge needs to be performed, so I need to do some research as to how to properly do the purge and what supplies are needed.
During our work day today the boys and S came out for dinner. It was enjoyable having them around. B and S even mowed the lawn for me!
Time: 6.5 hrs
