The Ovation does not have battery boxes.

I use the top 2 slots in the PFD and MFD. When updating the nav data on the MFD I pull out the check list in the top slot and replace it when I’m finished with the update.

I’m going to try East Coast Paint & Interior in Deland but only replacing the accordion around my entrance door. The quote was $1,200 and I also asked for a quote on my front seats (leather) $6,300.

Brown has required an IPC annually for the past few years and I finally switched over to the them 2yrs ago. Brown has always had lower premiums. I have 6,000+ hours and just turned 71, it doesn’t seem like loyalty matters anymore.

I set my FF between 29 and 30, seems to work out well with the 310hp.

I only update the PFD and MFD using the top slot. I have the 1st generation of the G1000.

On the Ovation the A/C service ports are located in the avionics bay, top left just above the removable panel.

In my Ovation 2 the 310hp STC required a separate tack be installed because the G1000’s RPM did not go to 2700 RPM. I removed the tack once I had the Waas installed in 2016 because the profile was changed at that time to the Ovation 3.

My Hobbs did the same thing and I disconnected it.

Years ago I had the same problem (intermittent) in my M20J with the 530 and it was a bad antenna. Garmin sent a free replacement and I just had to pay for the labor.

Try moving your stall warning tab up and down and side to side, mine hung up once after washing the airplane. I can feel where the stall warning tab hangs up on one side so I now know to to check the tab after washing that I didn’t hit it with the sponge when cleaning the leading edge of the wing.

I had my magneto’s overhauled by Crossfire Magneto several years ago when it was located in Spruce Creek and run by Paul Bavard. Paul was a very knowledgeable person but he moved out of Spruce Creek (7FL6) a few years ago and I believe he sold the business.

Jeff what avionics shop did you use? I’ve also got the G1000 in my M20R and used Premier down at FXE the last time I had a problem and found them to be very knowledgeable.
