Installed the diodes for master and starter relays that came with firewall forward kit. The stud on the starter relay is short with the diode, so I removed the thick spring washer, and used thread lock on the nut.
Then I thought I could get the red cube fuel flow sensor installed today. But I found out that the steel nipple fittings I bought from Aircraft Spruce a while ago are of wrong size, the portion threading into the sensor is smaller than it should be. I will have to order new fittings. So, I just get the sensor bracket installed to the engine case tonight, that was not a easy job either due to limited space to work the wrenches.
