After "fretting" over something not being correct for most of this week, last evening I finally figured out what it was. While working on the access plate for the left tank on Sunday, I put the nutplates for the fuel sender on the "outboard" side of the acess plate per the instructions. I hadn't been back to the shop since Monday and last nite I woke up in a cold sweat and had to go look. Sure enough, they were talking about the outboard side of the wing, which is the inside of the access plate.
Today I emailed Van's, being fairly sure it would make no difference providing the sender was secure and sealed and sure enough, that's exactly what they told me.
The problem is, I'm not sure I can live with it that way. Now, I know I'm not building a show plane, and I'm the only one who will know it when I'm done, but I'm not sure I can live with that.
To that end, what's the best way to remove the prosealed sender from the access plate. I had quite a time removing the screws and I can only imagine what it will take to remove the proseal.
Or does the collective wisdom here think it will be "okay".
Sorry for the long post but I'm really upset with myself.
