  1. So here’s the story. Pre annual inspection EDM 700 working perfectly. Post annual not so much. exhaust temp on cylinder two not showing any temp. We switch number two probe to cylinder four and now four doesn’t work. Bad probe? That’s what I’m thinking. So I buy a new probe and install it to cylinder four and you guessed it, cylinder four working perfect. Now cylinder two isn’t working. The only thing I did was add a oil pressure option to the EDM 700, which works as advertised. The the heck?
  2. And done. Didn’t redo the whole panel but certainly works.
  3. That's the new plan. Nothing is ever easy Mom always said.
  4. Well, I have a CNC machine. Looks like I will be cutting a new panel and lower the instruments.
  5. The problem is the top instrument hits the cross member. Not sure if it’s structural or not. Can I put a notch in it or modify to fit maybe?
  6. Trying to install new EI instruments and at the goal line ran into a fit issue. Top instrument won’t fit because of the cross member shown. Any ideas?
  7. Soon as you power on the wingtip strobes they seem to stay in perfect sync. if you then hit the nav a second later they seem to offset each other. Doesn’t seem worth it to me to run a sync wire.
  8. This is the result without syncing. BB914BAD-4068-402C-B420-8DB248AD35A0.MOV
  9. So I’m upgrading from the stock manifold pressure gauge to the EI digital gauge. The piping coming from the engine looks like 1/4”, then it transitions to 1/8”, then to the gauge. The new one has a plastic hose with 1/4” fittings. Is pressure just pressure? Does it matter if the piping goes up and down in diameter?
  10. Do you guys update your weight and balance when there is a change of maybe two pounds? I'm pulling my power supplies after installing LED's.
  11. That’s what I thought, just thought there might be something special because I have bladders and there’s a hose clamp.
  12. Is there a trick to getting these out?
  13. Anyone out there replace their wing drains that have bladders? Is that a special part? Looks like it’s installed into the bladder with a hose clamp?
  14. Anyone out in Mooneyland ever replace their wing drains when having bladders? Looks like they are installed into the bladder with a hose clamp? Is that a special part? I’m used to screw on drains.
  15. Anybody have a POH handy that shows upper and lower fuel pressure limits for a 77 M20J?
  16. I want to replace my old wingtip strobes and position lights with LED's. What are you guys using? Whelen Orion 650's? Do you need to rewire from rocker switch or use existing wire?
  17. I used a musicians road case and old airplane tire under the tail tiedown. I pulled the engine and swung the gear. As I remember, this worked perfectly.
  18. Please do! Trying to decide between them and Art Craft.
  19. How’s your Corona experience so far?
  20. Ever notice a twitchy oil pressure reading below 6 quarts?
  21. Where do you like to keep your oil level? I usually like it at 6 quarts if I’m doing flights around and hour or two. Long trips I like to start at seven. Do you notice any indications when it falls below a certain level?
  22. Too funny! I met you once at the fuel pump and you told me about your paint job and who did it. I turned a friend on to them and he had a good experience. I would like to take a closer look if you don't mind.
