2) Push the two halves together and clamp in place.<br />

front of the fuel tank(s). The fuel tanks are behind this tank on the CG.<br />
Fuel Tank Installation<br />
Below is a photo of the installation of 2 DuBro 50 oz fuel tanks. TBM now offers a 101 oz fuel tank<br />
suitable for use in the DV8R. If you install the TBM 101 oz tank some of the former needs to be<br />
relieved for installation on the CG. Aftermarket Kevlar tanks are also available. The two 50 oz tanks<br />
mount of their sides as shown.<br />
1) If installing the two 50 oz tanks, cut 4 pieces of Velcro 18” in length.<br />
2) Use hot melt glue to attach the Velcro to the top and sides (not the bottom) of the fuel tanks.<br />
Have the end pieces of Velcro hang down to wrap around the fuselage floor. This makes<br />
installation and removal very easy.<br />
3) The tank(s) are mounted near the CG. The front of the tank(s) is at the front of the former as<br />
shown in one of the following photos.<br />
