  1. thought the shuttle valve was a Beech thing
  2. Years ago (40ish) I asked about cycling the prop, 1st to watch the tach, 2nd to watch the oil pressure and the last to watch the manifold pressure
  3. Maybe an internal detail cleaning of the wings and fuselage?
  4. Is it common practice to turn the commutator when replacing the brushes if it is needed?
  5. Zink Chromate is still available through Aicraft Spruce HERE, just use the drop downs menus and get what you want
  6. I know on the C’s you don’t have to pull or loosen the motor
  7. Question 1) Looking at the side view you can see the filler, I assume you remove the plug and top it off Question 2) I can get to the filter on mine with the seats out laying on the floor board and reaching up into the instrument panel (helps to have eyes on the end of your fingers )
  8. Here is One Solution a MS'er came up with while installing the LASAR 201 windshield
  9. The ones I've seem leave the resivoir aft of the firewall and uses tubing to plumb the filler to the other side
  10. I read somewhere they will not be offering the right side with ADS-B IN for certified aircraft. Any word on if they will offer a matching light and if so, when?
  11. That's putting it nicely.... $520.00 for main tool & $485.00 for nose tool is way out of line
  12. Legitimate seller, does a bunch of NOS and used aviation stuff
  13. 2018 Started on my Commercial rating for the 3rd time Purchased the hangar I had been renting for years Flew a Ford Tr-Motor (right seat) 2019 Finish up Commercial (been through several CFI's, they're flaky down here) Get my CFI and II (too old for the airlines so I shouldnt be too flaky) Paint the interior & exterior of the hangar Build a small office in the corner of the hangar (with A/C)
  14. The eBay seller is on crack......
  15. With the volt & amp meters jumping around along with lights dimming at the same time sound to me you have a partial short to ground. Voltage spikes can take out spendy electronics, if it were me I'd contact the ones that installed the new avionics.
  16. you should plan a trip to the Rio Grande Valley (S. Texas) we have tens of thousands of wild parrots. They mainly head into Mexico for the winter, but a few stick around, the summer gets really noisy.
  17. Transportation cost & quantity purchased by the FBO plays into the equation, we're at $4.10 for 100LL ($3.90) with my discount.
  18. If they are the original torpedo lights the small knob on the back can be turned to change them from "Spot" to "Flood", they are worthless as a spotlight but mine did a decent job flooding most of the panel
  19. Had to charge my battery yesturday, charger was on most of the day and when I checked the voltage at the end of the day it was 14.21vdc across the terminals.
  20. Same issue with my E, my solution was eyebrow LED lighting but with no where to mount them
  21. the damage is only on one blade or both?
  22. 4”? Seems kinda long, mine are 3” overall. Running a tap through to straighten the threads will work but if not done correctly will cause more damage,
  23. I think a new weight n balance is required after re-painting
