I can't wait to take my plane there. I might fly it out on Wednesday

I just got off the phone with Brian Kenndrick! I'll be taking the plane to him next week and he'll be working on it February 23

Definitely going to try and book something with Brian kenndricks

THANK YOU!! that's really a great idea. Ill look into this rightvaway!!

Thanks, I put to much work (and mooney ) to give up. Just disappointed in the work that the shop did.

I wish there was a hyperbole. Unfortunately it's just been a mess. I will say the mooney shop did fix the leaks, after my mechanic did most of the work to get it flyable.

It's definitely a big difference. All three cylinders on the right side (1,3,5 are 30-40° hotter) cylinder number 1 being my hottest

I closed up all the gaps that I thought were causing the air to leak. But I'm still seeing +30 degree different on the entire right side of the engine, compared to the left. I've logged maybe 60 hours at most on this airplane. I am so done. I can't lean this airplane without my CHT exceeding 420. I purchased this plane from a VERY well know mooney shop. Even though I got the paper work saying an annual was done. There was no chance that a mechanic even looked at it. Between 2 faulty batteries, both fuel tanks leaking gallons of fuel, prop leaking oil, both push rod tubes on cylinder number 5 were cracked and leaking tons of oil leading to having to replace cylinder #5, and the entire pitot static line was leaking. I'm just ranting, but after this experience, compared to the M20C this is making me regret everything.

Shout out to John for comming through and getting me these gauges. I just got them today!! Out with the temporary gauges!

Just sent you a message

I tried, but I wasn't successful

I just installed two pseudo replacements. One for each wing. I used a same sized rochester dial fuel guage and marked the same spot with a sharpie. But i would love to get 2 official replacements

Thanks!! Yea I have a GAD43, so I would need a 43E to delete the preselector! Thanks. I'm planning on upgrading the g500 to the txi and installing a gi275. And also installing a surefly! First though, I still have to fix the dang over heating issue on the right side of my Bravo. It is starting to get discouraging.

If I have a legacy g500 and the KDC150 auto-pilot. If I install a gi275, I can get rid of the vacuum. But can I have the g500 or gi275 power my altitude preselector?

Well this was an interesting way for my Rochester wing gauge to break. I just wished we can get new ones. I purchased general Rochester gauges and it works..sorta, but it's not like the real thing. Is it possible to go directly to Rochester and have some custom made? Since Mooney doesn't want to help us out. Or have more important things to do.
