I've pasted below a treatise on this topic. Veracity: can't say, but he cites his sources. Suggests one needs to coat the parts internally also, but no coating on the 914 for the health of the turbo.

My manual for the 914 installation says to route the line from the crankcase bottom aft, but that takes it way too near the muffler, IMO, besides making it hard to install/remove/inspect. I was think

In the instant case here (914), there's little clearance with the muffler and the hot side of the turbo housing, and insulation on the oil line could be in contact with them. I think if there's a cho

Not even our FAA's bible (Acceptable Methods/Techniques Handbook) is specific, just if loose, drill to next size rivet. I'd think a few thousandth's slop is OK. Three things strike me here about the

Sounds like an excellent idea. However, I'd also drain all the fuel when done. Once used to clean the tank, I think it's best relegated to my truck and lawn tractor. Probably OK, but I'd feel much be

My 914 manual words it as follows: "At full throttle operation the depression at pump inlet must be 4,4 p.s.i. below ambient pressure." Unless you mistyped inches and you did measure PSI, and w/o doi

I bonded the fairings to the fuselage side, rather than the wing root. Results: probably about the same amount of work (unless you buy the pre-molded), better visual appearance, cleaner fairing adjac

I can't comment on the theory, but microballoons/laminating resin as a surfacer is obsolete. Use PolyFiber's SuperFil. Besides the micro being significantly heavier, it's a bear to sand, and the pinh
