Hi,
Does anyone know if there is an installation drawing for the control bracket that goes between the carb and engine sump (VA-149)? I've looked all through my blueprints and can't find it. The FWF instructions reference OP-26, which doesn't show the bracket.

I can see how the bracket is supposed to fit, but am wondering about the notes and hardware callouts on whatever blueprint I am missing, if I am missing one.

Thanks
Paul

This is a very old thread, but it doesn't appear to have been answered and now I have exactly the same question...

Phil,

It might not have been answered because the part comes complete and most people just grab the part and install it.

However, I did have to order one from Van's w/o the carb holes punched so I could drill holes for the smaller MA3 carb used on the O-290 and, as it turns out, for the O-235.

Take a look at my engine page #1 and scroll down to issue #3. You will find a number of pictures of the OP26.
