		+	Over the Course of this project, Group 14 gained an extent of knowledge that they will not soon forget. Although it was done in a school setting, the manner of creating proposals mirrored that of a real job, the time constraints were of those not unfamiliar to real world situations, and the process itself produced a wealth of knowledge for the members in Group 14. Overall we were very successful in our efforts, and achieved our goals of disassembling, reassembling, writing up, and finishing the reverse engineering project for MAE277, as shown throughout Group 14's Wiki page.

	Outside of what suggestions and design revisions already stated in the previous gate, we believe the heater to be well put together for its purpose. It does not have overly complex parts with complex functions for its intended purpose. This results in a product that is fairly reliable, and if need be, easy to fix. Because of this, we feel that no more revisions are needed to the product.

 ===Overview of Product Assembly===
-'''''Problems Faced'''''
+'''Problems Faced'''
 We faced only one major problem when restoring the heater.  This was when we replaced the fuel injector.  By mistake, we fastened it upside-down, which caused use to not be able to replace the fuel lines as they were to short when it was flipped.  To fix this, we unscrewed the injector, and replaced it in the correct position.  This allowed the lines to have the correct length, and allowed for us to hook up the necessary lines.
-'''''Differences from Dissection'''''
+'''Differences from Dissection'''
 Overall, putting the heater back together was extremely similar to the dissection.  The same tools were used, as the same parts were replaced with ease.  The only major difference we faced was the fact that we had to decide where all the wires and tubes went, rather than taking it apart where we just pulled them out regardless.  Despite the difference, we still managed to restore the heater and put it back together in its entirety.
-'''''Product Overview'''''
+'''Product Overview'''
 Once we completed the re-assembly of the heater, we took it upon ourselves to test the product to be sure we put it back together correctly.  Once the pieces were replaced, we plugged the product in.  As instructed, we did not use any kerosene and did not actually have a flame, however, the motor/fan as well as the ignitor still worked.  We did notice that regardless of when the switch was in the on or off position, the heater stayed on.  In order to fix this, we reversed the wires to see if we may have mistaken the positions.  After retesting the product, we found it to have the same result as before.  Based on this, we came to the conclusion that the switch most likely never worked to begin with, as if we had the wires incorrectly placed, the heater would not work to begin with.  In order to fix this, a new switch should result in the heater working properly.
-'''''Additional Suggestions'''''
+'''Additional Suggestions'''
 Outside of what suggestions and design revisions already stated in the previous gate, we believe the heater to be well put together for its purpose.  It does not have overly complex parts with complex functions for its intended purpose.  This results in a product that is fairly reliable, and if need be, easy to fix.  Because of this, we feel that no more revisions are needed to the product.
