Here's a picture of my defunct servo...
-
OK, the boot that I got was not the correct one. I'm still hoping for Servo ASSY. Mod BI-706, P/N 20413-6-0. Anyone, please help. thanks,
-
Thanks Kevin, I found one at BAS Parts. Ended up paying $150 plus shipping. It's good to know that there are still a few around. regards,

Still waiting with cash in hand.

I just need the one BI-706 servo to make my day.

Jerry Walters did my system in 2015. I had the Accutrak and altitude hold added to the original PC.

Hi Joe,
I'm waiting for a boot from DCarlton, who is upgrading in a week or two. However, an extra can't hurt. If you can send me a MOD BI-706, P/N 20413-6-0, or equivalent, I'll pay your price.
thanks,

waiting with bated breath... Jerry Walters restored my whole system before he passed. It's worked perfectly for hundreds of hours, and still works well, even with a torn boot. I had the vacuum line to this boot capped today, to ease the load on my pump. I'm excited to have it perfect again. regards,

Does anyone have old Brittain parts? I need a servo boot, MOD BJ-706, P/N 2413-6-0. With high hopes, thanks in advance.

For Yetti...it was left on the glareshield in the hottest part of summer, and its bulging all around. I can't get the screws out to see if any parts are salvageable. None of the lights go on when power is connected. I'd say it's perished, gone to meet its maker. For EricJ...Amazon won't send to my address, even though it's a physical address, and not a PO Box. For bigmo...I'll check out the Sentry Mini, thanks.

1965 M20E, at annual, my Dukes fuel pump is dripping. Can the seals and/or o-rings and/or gaskets be replaced? What are my options? Any and all help appreciated, and free advice paid for with a nod and a wink.

My Flightbox ADS-B receiver, which I built from a kit in 2007, has finally died. Does anyone have a Flightbox or Stratux for sale, maybe from an upgrade?

Under Contract on 1970 M20F! Kudos to Jimmy @ Gmax!

The gills and the front scoop were added to my 65 E, when I had the turbo installed. -
My Mooney logo ball cap is getting threadbare, and I can't find another like it. I bought it many years ago from MAPA, now sadly gone. I don't like the one from Sporty's, wrong shape for my square head. Suggestions please.
-
Thanks, I've asked my rebuilder to get back to me. I'll let you know if they want to go this route.
-
Thanks, I've sent them an email.

I need a new, rebuilt, or rebuildable cylinder for my 1965 M20E with Lycoming IO360A1A. Can anyone help? Thanks in advance.
-
OK, thanks all for the reality check. I knew all that, but lust is hard to let go of. To answer a question, it is a turbo, and it works well. It holds max allowable 27inches to FL180, and still gives me 24 inches at FL220. The last piece of my puzzle will be a good engine monitor, after I finish paying for the new engine and turbo rebuild. Taxes in BC are only on the sale, not annual property taxes as they are in California.

I have a perfectly good plane, a 1965 M20E, that's been modified heavily. I can land and depart a 1500ft grass field, climb non-stop to FL180 in 20 minutes, then cruise at about 180KTAS for 5 hours. It's old school, but fully IFR, with 3 axis Brittain autopilot that works well. It's comfortable for the 2 of us, with a nice interior. Why then, am I constantly looking at M20M TLS Bravo's? I'm probably too old to learn a glass panel, but my brain refuses to quit looking at shiny new things. Free advice is worth everything you pay for.

1965 M20E turbo. I'm removing my "through the window" OAT probe, and have installed an AV-30. Where is the best place for an electronic OAT probe?

Cabin comfort 1965 M20E
Chris Strube replied to Chris Strube's topic in Vintage Mooneys (pre-J models)
The turbo didn't seem to affect the heat output. Max heat output to the front is WAY too hot to handle, so I have to juggle the controls to make it bearable. I have the same problem with defrost being anemic. -

Thanks for the ideas. I'll check the louvered outlets first. I may be chasing an impossibility, as I've seen OATs in the -50C range. My most northerly office is in Norman Wells, NWT (CYVQ), and I've flown there in winter! -

Thanks for this. I had a "Spatial Interior" installed a few years ago, and all the heater ducts had their furbish replaced. Heat makes it's way back, but it's overwhelmed by that pesky cold draft. -
My heater works well, but the back seat is a meat locker. I've replaced door and baggage hatch seals, and can't feel any air infiltration from either during flight. However, a cold draft from somewhere keeps the back seat, and the backs of our necks very cold. We regularly fly above FL180, so it's a real concern. Has anyone found a cure for this problem? thanks in advance...
