Rear firewall door
Kevin,
I have the 337H model, basicly the same as your G model. The door is good for alternator work. The door is about 1 foot square right in front of alternator.

Rear flap motor
Ken,
The problem on the rear cal. flaps is a shear pin that goes if you have a bind or if you block the flaps from closing. The pin is easy to replace. it is by the motor in the little arm.
