Short Description:  Final Epoxying Of Ignition Coil Cooling Tubes

Applied the second application of JB Weld KwikWeld 5-minute epoxy to both ignition coil cooling tubes on both ram air cylinder cooling ducts. First application (approximately half way around each tube) was simply to lock down the tube’s position to ensure it remained accurately aimed at it’s respective ignition coil while the air duct was removed so the remaining epoxy could be applied. This second application of epoxy completed the epoxy surround of where the tube exits the exterior of the air duct.

The first application of epoxy cured so hard and held the cooling tubes so securely, after applying the second coat of epoxy on the exterior of where the tubes exit from the cooling ducts (creating a 360 degree seal/bond around the tubes), there was no need to apply epoxy to the interior area where the tubes exit through the cooling duct walls.




Duct tape was used to prevent wet epoxy from leaking through and dripping onto cyclinder fins.





Passenger side cooling duct's ignition coil cooling tube fully epoxied.





Pilot side cooling duct's ignition coil cooling tube fully epoxied.
