Were you able to acquire a new servo, or get the old one rebuilt?

First Plane Purchase Questions- Open to Advice!
Fly Boomer replied to tbenton1's topic in General Mooney Talk
You will get a flood of advice, but this line from @Hank above is a golden nugget (emphasis mine): "Note that there is no standard for this work [pre-purchase inspection], whoever you hire will do whatever you want, and likely not do whatever you forget to ask for." -

You will get a lot of responses. I would suggest getting a hangar as soon as possible -- before the airplane is a good idea. -
Instead of the adjustable tension coupler, I have been wanting to try one of these: https://locknlube.com/products/locknlube-grease-coupler?variant=32586284204116 Any experience with these lock and release types?

Compared to 1600-degree exhaust, I wouldn't be too concerned about any air that might pass by.

Those charts are gorgeous. That's a lot of work. Thanks.

I have read about this happening to both 550s and 520s. I would find a Continental expert and have them do a complete "fuel system setup". It's a complicated process, and there is no shortcut.

Cracked side window - what's the fix?
Fly Boomer replied to Slick Nick's topic in General Mooney Talk
I have seen cracks laced up with safety wire. Series of holes drilled on each side of crack, and lace it up like your trainers. -
C'mon, if they did that, anybody could read them.

Finally! A government that knows what we want.

I have read a large number of reviews saying it doesn't go up or down and/or the little rubber plug that's supposed to keep the hydraulic fluid contained blows out never to be seen again. What was your experience?
