We installed these Marsh teflon friction washers-- https://www.marshbrothersaviation.com/collections/mooney/products/shaw-aero-fuel-cap-washers Highly recommend!

I also HIGHLY recommend Carl and Rick at Sebastian Communications. They handled my panel upgrade from the original 1982 King panel about 5 years ago and last bi-annual we omitted the problematic vacuum pump and vacuum driven A/H for the Garmin G5. After the learning curve, I know you will enjoy yours as much as I have and will also have much peace of mind while flying knowing you are state of the art. Happy flying!

Rutherford Mooney 1152G Merlyn Intercooler Power Settings.pdf I also have the Merlyn waste gate and Airflow Systems intercooler. This PDF is their recommended power settings. Enjoy your bird! We have for 12 years now.

Go for it! I bit the bullet two years ago and, after getting used to the new scan (took a while to break long held habits), haven't regretted it. G500 with two G430W's, new JPI, Transponder etc.. Actually wonder how I got along with out all this over the last 35 years. Still vacuum backup. Also still like my 496 for redundancy and the Sirius XM weather. The G500 pulls it all together wonderfully! Sorry about the flipped photo...my MAC didn't like something on the upload ???

I recently installed two AeroLEDs Sunspot 36LX (landing lights only) on my 231 and concur with Jsavage3 . They are great!

Basically it is an Ovation paint scheme....gotta thank my wife for the paint color, leather and carpet coordinations

And this chart was done by an Engineer!

Whisky Tango, Attached is my 231's Airflow systems settings...I also have the Merlyn waste gate. I installed the JPI 900 last year and all power settings at set MP/RPM's are automatically displayed so this is now redundant. Enjoy your 231! We have for 11 years.

Hawk Aircraft Painting and Hoover Interiors are at KVDF, Tampa Executive Airport, Tampa, Florida

For the finished product from Hawk Aircraft Painting and Hoover interiors. One stop shopping worked out very well!

Hawk Aircraft Painting (Tampa, FL KVDF) without hesitation! Joe Dinalfo is fabulous. Our 231 has been with Joe for 2 months during the Christmas/New Year period....new paint, windshield and interior (C/O Brian Hoover--Hoover Interiors). We have monitored all the paint stripping, the fiberglass repairs, refurbishment, painting and interior process bi-weekly. I can't express how well it all has gone. Joe has always had another 2 or 3 Mooney's in various stages of the painting process each time we came by. True professionals with attention to the little details. Both Joe and Brian have gone well above our expectations. Saw it 95% completed last weekend and WOW! Can't wait to pick it up this Tuesday after the new interior is complete. Paint process photos attached. Last photo was the original 22 year old paint scheme done by the previous owner in Colorado....the ole bird was due for a refresh.
