Each to their own, but one of the many reasons I used to fly a PA28 rather than a 152 or 172 was that it had a proper quadrant throttle. The push-pull thing in Cessnas is so crude. The Europa throttl
I used 25 amp CBs from RS. Part no 406-9491 5.70. They also do 30, 35 in a different series 405-9208 12.68 All plus VAT Richard Richard F.W. Holder 01279 842804 (POTS) Bell House, Bell Lane, 01279 84
My experience is that the 912S engine never needs ANY throttle when starting hot or cold. Indeed it won't start if you do have any throttle. So cold is close throttle completely, pull choke and pres
Landing lights : The current will depend on the wattage. An H1 or H3 (I think) halogen headlight bulb is 55w which divided by 12 volts is 4.6 amps. This would be bearable for the taxi take off appro
Good morning guys. G-OWWW is a classic tri-gear with 912S and Airmaster. I have noticed recently that in the cruise (5000 and 25 MP) every so often the engine "mumurs" as if one cylinder misfires. It
I would have thought that the return fuel pipe should go into the tank and not immediately into the feed to the engine. One very good reason for the return is to avoid vapour locking and you need "c
I am hoping to get there, although it would be better if you aim for Bourne, as that is where we are meeting I think ! 10 miles west of Cambridge. I will be there if the weather is good and if I get
Sorry chaps Unless you use a fixed pitch font such as Courier, and it is displayed as a fixed pitch font, you will rarely get these things to line up. A space is narrow, a hyphen is wider, and a w wi
I was about to say exactly the same. Indeed if the sensor is now close to the airstream then it will be subjected to cooling air and will underread considerably. The mod would make sense for the oil
Having suffered a bad misfire because some silicone sealant ended up blocking a jet I would say do NOT put any sealant on ANY fuel line joints past the filters, and probably anywhere ! As I was not
Hi Team As a diversion from trying to balance my carbs today (don't ask - not good news) I decided I would adjust my brakes. I use the two tri-gear master cylinders but in the wheel well, to provide
It was me I think - I posted my usages, but I have some funny ideas. I will look it up and post it later in the week ! Or call me and I can tell you about my "funny ideas" ! Richard Richard F.W. Hol
HI My little tubes are fitted into the airbox. However I see the manual implies that the t-piece should be on the inside of the airbox and the tube should be pressed on from outside. [Thus there is n
These are my figures I actually bought more in most cases and these figures are the result of subtracting any balance remaining from the amount I bought :-) 4AWG : 20 feet 10AWG : 21 feet 12AWG : 7 f
I don't have the carb ice kit. Carb icing is a possibility for the once-every-20-minutes misfire (which for now I can live with !) When you say it runs rough at the end of a fast climb out do you me
Thanks for this, How does the carb temp gauge work, is it in contact with the carb body or does it fit inside somehow. I have (currently) my external temp probe blue-tacked to the side of one of the
