Hi All,
I can't for the life of me get the flap handle installed! Four bolts have stopped me in my tracks going on day two. I've tried everything I can think of, including applying pressure to the head of the bolts with a crowbar while rotating them. Including turning them both ways in case I don't know which direction "rightie tightie" means.
Plans P. 32-04, Figure 2, Step 2
AN3-11A bolts going into K1000-3 nut plates.
It looks like the bolt is making it through the holes in the F-1215-R/L but the threads on the bolt are not getting deep enough to meet the threads on the nut plates on all four locations. Something is keeping the bolts from going all the way in, even with pressure from a crowbar.
What size tap is used for an AN3 bolt? I can't figure out the charts for taps/dies/bits.
If anyone makes house-calls in the SF Bay Area I'll give you my first-born.
Thanks,
Harry
