2023 Installation with latest Muffler, cowling and heater

[@philschmidt6685]

There have been few things in life so gratifying as my engine’s successful first start. Congratulations! I know this was an exciting day!

Excellent video, Taking time to explain the complete installation answered all my questions about the 130! How lucky is he to have a hanger like that??

Beautiful install Jan... I want the same for mine but maybe will go with the 150 after discussing it with you more.

I would be interested to know the overhaul times

Very nice install video! Question, with the header tank and it’s pump, are pumps still required in the wing tanks or does gravity flow work! I’ve recently started building a CH750 STOL and am seriously considering powering it with the Viking!

[@eggenfellner]

You just need the pumps supplied with the header tank. Gravity does the rest

[@keithgempler4479]

Is there a different routing through the cabin of the fuel lines from wing to header tank? Looks strange to have fuel lines running across the rear window.

Is there supposed to be a nut or nuts on the long bolt going from the alternate mount through the alternator bracket???

[@eggenfellner]

No, it’s threaded.

[@JasonRidesmoto]

Which engine is this? Thanks

This is the Viking 130
