I fixed the oil leak we had yesterday and made another pass through every bolt and fitting firewall forward to make sure nothing had moved. We got the spinner installed as well as the plenum.
Finally, we cowled it up and pulled it out for the first taxi test.
I spoke with Andair about the pump, and they’re sending me a new one (great customer service by the way). Without the electric pump, the engine driven pump has to pull the fuel during engine start, so the engine takes a few extra revolutions to fire over what it will once the new pump arrives. Anyway, my brother and I jumped in and did an initial taxi test. Other than needing to finish seating the brake pads, I was able to accomplish all of the taxi testing goals in one engine run. Here’s a video of the taxi test.
