  1. Thanks for the education guys. I replaced all the breakers in my C180 when I did a number on it, but not the switches. Reading the above, maybe I should have done both.
  2. Alright. Back to switches. How are people complying with AC 43.13-1B ? Specifically the derating factor. So for a 12 VDC system, for a 10 amp light, a 50 amp switch is required. Looking at the Carling Technologies I don't see anything that amperage. Am I missing something?
  3. Firefly. Do you have a figure number for the IPC? I'm replacing a number of bushings. Very slim chance I've got it but worth a look. Getting parts is a big issue. Lasar have been great, but they are just a retailer. It's Mooney who gets the parts produced and they aren't replacing empty stock lines.
  4. YuriE. I had a good look around the other day and could see no pitch servo and mounting unit. There was a servo and bellcrank in the left hand wing. Would it be unusual to have a S-Tec just as a wing leveller?
  5. This is what I've pulled out so far. The servo's are still in the wing. Next weeks job (I believed it all worked prior to coming out. But who knows)
  6. YuriE, I've just had a look through the paperwork and cannot find any STC for the S-Tec and M20F. Not totally surprising as the books are a bit of a mess. Sorry, Denis.
  7. I can check. I'll try and take a look in the log books tomorrow. I'm running at the moment. Airbus trip for three days and then into a harvester for three weeks.
  8. I've got an S-Tec 50 (I think) that I've pulled out of a M20F. I don't know anything about it except it worked prior to long term storage.
  9. I've just purchased the Garmin 7" Txi. It's still in the box and sometime from install. Any pics or advice on the installation?
  10. What the story with gear springs (or bungees as Mooney likes to call them) ? I’ve had some on order for a while, but none are forth coming. My old ones I left in stripper for ages and paid them no respect thinking I was getting new ones.
  11. Thanks for that. Boeing being Aviall. I'll ask but the FBO deals with these guys. But I never thought to ask Textron, or at least our local Cessna dealer. Good idea.
  12. Why so much goop in such an unseemly fashion?
  13. Hi guys. Service Bulletin M20-212 calls for bolts; NAS 1306-21H or NAS 1306-20H as required, arrow A. Spruce don't have these. Nor can the local FBO who deals with Avail and various others. Any ideas on where to source? Parts are hard to get. While I've got many things of Dan at Lasar, I think the poor bloke is having trouble sourcing stuff due to supply chain issues. My mate tells me a Conquest in Northern Australia has been flying for the last six months below 10,000 ft due nil pressurisation parts. Thanks, Denis.
  14. Someone showed me that in a Chieftain once. With the addition to once the mixture is rich, open and close the throttle. It worked beautifully. Problem was I only flew another 50 hours in it. The thousand before hand with lots of turnarounds it would have been handy. It's been decades since I've operated a fuel injected piston engine aircraft regularly but good conversation guys.
