Engine Hook Tape Retention

Before gluing on the centering rings,
TIP: 1 1/2 wraps of electrical tape is applied to retain the engine hook.

Start the tape wrap 1/4 turn below the engine hook. 
The tape goes over the hook and completely around the tube. 
Go over the hook again and finish the wrap 1/4 the way around, directly opposite the starting point.
This way you have a double wrap of tape over the hook.

Note the mount is flipped over in the second picture to show the other side.

I've mentioned this before - Why use electrical tape? It retains it's flexibility. and will last a lot longer than paper masking tape.
