@RainmanRaysRepairs - Inquiring minds would like to know whether you are going to replace those Torx bolts on the fuel return lines? I know I would since you likely are not going to be able to torque them to spec now.

Break it up in system components and it’s not that bad. Mostly just got to do it a few times and it’s not that bad. Everything goes back easily just a lot of work. Everything really falls into place it can really be easy. Ray is not afraid of work and he is knowledgeable of systems components.

[@damonens9478]

Yeah it seems overwhelming but I just litterly did the cp3 and fuel regulator x2 on my 03 lb7 and it seemed so daunting but like you said if you break it up , there's not much to it , still some work but if you lay things out and have it organized and take pictures it's easy

I began doing what he does. I used to worry about it and still couldn't remember where bolts and nuts went. Lately I've done a number of in depth jobs that might take me a week or so to start putting things back together. I've only got a small leftover parts bin.😊 My grandson, just graduated from aircraft mechanic school and it drives him crazy that I don't make little stick it notes or labels and set each thing aside. That's a good work habit if he's fixing a plane, but I'll chance it on my own car.

[@andrewbarnett84]

Cute story about the crush washer. I was an Avionics tech in the RNZAF (Airforce), my repair was to re-fit a connector on the belly blade type antenna, that had been wiped off by a heavy landing (student pilot or Flying Officer if you like). The connector was also wiped off by the grass heavy landing short of the runway. No problem, simple fix, says the SGT, just take off the inspection panel under the seat reach in and extend the coax cable fit a new connector, and once the airframe guys have fixed the ripped metal fit a new antenna. Now this job is my first on this type of plane. So I follow the instructions, remove the inspection panel and reach in and come out with a handful of mud and grass, so OK I vacuum all that out, again reach in for the cable, got it. Pull it into view, but Its too short. Tell SGT, he tells officer in charge of maintenance, next thing I've got Base C.O and all the 'interested' officers looking over my shoulder, You sure you can't fit it? All eyes on me, "Well I say if I could get better access, I could un-loom it from there and move the coax out a bit and then it should fit" I heard myself say. "GOOD", says the C.O. and a nod from the Chief Flying training Officer. Now I have to say my rank, I was a brand new shiny Aircraftman, in short the lowest of the low with the sole exception of recruit. BUT, because I opened my big mouth, I now had to actually fix the problem, correctly, in military fashion, and following all the correct CAA (FAA equivalent) rules and regulations. Luckily, I had just completed training on how to calculate the number and spacing of rivets and or rivinuts around a patch in the aluminium. So under the pilot's seat I cut a 12 inch square hole for access, drilled and fitted the rivinuts, made a new panel to fill the hole. All good, but this is the military, you can't just cut holes in the internal part of the wing box section, you have to do it on paper first, using the manufacturers diagrams, as a plan and make a "MOD" or Modification plan. So after a month or so of sketch, get approval, send to drawing dept, add many pages of 'how to', and then re-write so a shaved monkey can understand it, adding ten more pages and pictures (sketch, get approval, send to drawing dept) finally I was given the approval to cut the hole. So I cut the hole, mark the places for the rivinuts. Shine my torch into the hole, and run away screaming, laughing and sit in the corner holding my head. This particular airplane was built with pop rivets, visible in the hole I cut, was many kilos (pounds) of pop rivet heads, all floating around inside the wing box section under the pilots' seat, just where the aileron control cables pass and the coax I was looking for. Much longer story short, I had to make three more Modifications two of which grounded the Aircraft type until completed. If anyone cares I'll tell you the type of plane and even now my mods are required for all of the type. After my mods the aircraft are lighter and a little safer. Also there is access to cable for the antenna to be 'wiped' several times more LOL.

If those copper washers are aything like those used on old motorcycle brake systems you can anneal them. Once used they work harden, if reused as is they may not seal. Annealing softens them back to an as new condition. This is done by heating the copper washers red hot and let them cool off. Either air cooled or quenched works. Many times i have had to do this to get a good seal. New replacement washers don't always fit those old lines. Annealing the old is the only way to get a good seal.
