it is connected to the outside not to the "icebox" cooling box. I need to check if it is pointing to the flux capacitor.

If that is coming from the right side chances are that it goes to the original aviionic cooling - basically a vent mounted on the center of the firewall that blows air against the back of the stack. 

Don't know what you drive but that's my guess based on my 67F

 Jiminy creepers! How do you get 11.71 gigawatts to the flux capacitor???

 The way I heard it , accelerate to 65 MPH ,pull back on the stick and get hit by lightening.

You guys crack me up. Do you really come up with this stuff yourselves, or pay someone to write it.

Yeah, but you write it really well!  Cracks me up too.  Great Scott!  This is heavy.

Heavy, this is another subject concerning the anti-gravity module Mooneys are well known for. People think they float off the end of the runway because of speed. It's because they haven't found the on /off switch for this module. It's usuall unmarked and located right beside the power and the glory switch.

(it also requires air cooling)

Is there an inlet duct on the other side of the area where it mounts?

[Becca]

yes the end of the tube that goes to the side of the airplane is connected to that NACA scoop on the side of the fuselage.

On my M20J the other side is connected to the avionics ventilation fan on the bottom center of the firewall. From the fan you will see four hoses going to the back side of the avionics chassis. Although the fan keeps the avionics cooler I found that pointing the right eyeball vent toward the bottom the avionics stack provides a more effective cooling.
