Cabin Heat Door

Do yourself a big favour and change this adel clamp to a #2. The #3 doesn’t hold the cable housing tight enough and any bump of the cable causes the door to not fully close. After torquing my engine mount bolts I noticed the right door was 1/3 open. I must have rubbed against it and not noticed. Found the adel clamp to be the culprit. It is not fun changing the clamp while laying face down inside the plane. I also took some degreaser on a qtip and cleaned the inside of the clamp before installing it so it grabbed the cable without slipping. YMMV
