Get another straight one from Europa. These are long enough to allow you
to drop the cooler.
For the MS21042-3, drill out an initial 3/16" hole then countersink it,
---From within the tunnel, large enough to accept the raised part of the
nut. When you fit the nut you'll be fitting it so that the plate is
mounted on the tunnel wall but with the raised part embedded into the
countersunk area.

Cheers,
.....installing the coolant rad and the oil cooler :
I took the opportunity to lower the oil cooler the suggested 2
inches. If you did this, what parts did you order? I note a suggestion
that the bent tube on one side should be replaced by a 'straight' tube
but the ones supplied by Rotax are too short and the nipple ends up
inside the duct - where it would be difficult to clamp it with the
cooler in place.
What have I done wrong?
The 914 installation manual seems to leave a lot of the details
out.
On another bent, the manual suggests the cooling duct which
slides down twixt the footwells may be attached to the inside walls by
means of a -3 bolt and an MS 21042-3 anchor nut "installed in reverse".
I can't seem to imagine the arrangement..... Can someone enlighten me
please?
Happy landings
