  1. Does anyone know what the screw size and head is for these corners of the top cowling on an M20F (1969). I have never seen them, so I don't know what I am looking for. I can tell that they are threaded machine screws but don't now the head type or thread pitch.
  2. Do you know the number of this Mixture rod end SB? I am trying to locate it for the AP/IA to put in my logbook now that it is replaced? Thx
  3. I will post pics and dimensions of the rear and sides. Working with Denis (VH-KWA) on getting scans of the front two baffles.
  4. Sold! I need Mix and prop for both M20C and M20F
  5. Which fuel pump was correct?
  6. Someone me mentioned an SB on this. Do you know where to find it? Also is there a part listing for the bolt, nut, washers, spacers and rod end anywhere? Someone mentioned a kit?
  7. That would be awesome. I have a 3D scanner which can create CAD models of them. I'll definitely pay for your hassle and any shipping costs both ways. One week turnaround on my part. Doesn't take long to scan.
  8. Please take pics of the two front engine baffles (front, back and side) so I can see how they are made and attach as well as what hoses are connect to them. I am missing those two front baffles and am going to need to make them from your pictures. Thanks!
  9. I found out that the swivel is part number MS20270-B8 (also shown as -8B). This is a standard Apex Mil Spec U-joint still available commercially from the Apex Tool Group for around $200. I also found that he pin holding the swivel to the shaft is an AN392-19 which is available on ebay for around $5. The shaft in the tail section from the back cabin wall swivel (behind battery on F models) all the way to the tail gear assembly (square slider tube) is part number 915026-021 and is used on all models (C, E, F, G). This shaft passes through a hole in the frame that originally had a plastic cover over the sharp edges. On my plane the plastic cover was missing and the shaft was wearing against this brace. Someone had applied grease to the brace to lubricate any interference but the brace still cut a groove into the tube. I am looking for a new tube (915206-021) and plan to install a Panduit slotted sheet metal edge guard for future protection. I will include pictures of all this when I get back to the plane (#GEE99F-C)
  10. Does anyone have a picture of what the new Mixture and Throttle cable end should look like (preferably connected). I have included a pic of mine (new cables are coming) and I want to set it up correctly.
  11. I decided to go with the Garwin 34-828-014 governor instead of the PCU-5000. After feedback from some members, I found that Mooney used two types of governors based on where the prop cable comes out of the firewall. Mine comes out on the left (pilot) side and mounts to a triangular aluminum bracket (see picture). Other planes (prior to 1969) used a piece of 90-angle-aluminum extrusion mounted up and to the right for the cable coming off the right side of the firewall. It appears that the default configuration of the PCU-5000 is to replace this right-hand style of Hartzell Governor and thus the rotation and indexing of the ATH-1 requires reconfiguration for my mount type. In order to make things simpler, I opted to just go with an overhauled Garwin $1,550 which is also about 1/2 price. Additional research shows the 34-828-014 being used on both 0-360 and IO-360 for all Mooney models in 1969 (probably other years also).
  12. Here is a pic of the zero time overhauled IO-360-A1A with 100 hour slick mags (4345/4370 with SlickStart). Mechanically, I'll be installing the following: new Sky-Tec Starter (NL) new Power-plane AL12-P70 Amp Alternator PCU-5000 Governor ATH1 new mechanical Fuel pump it had a new Electric boost pump installed at the accident annual ditching the vacuum pump new Powerflow exhaust system 120 hour SPOH (100 hr Eddy-Current required AD prop) to start with New Mixture and Throttle cables (mine are a bit sticky) New Fuel/Oil Hoses Rebuilt Oil cooler Blasted and powder coated engine mount with AD gussets welded in New Lord engine mounts and engine mount-firewall hardware
  13. Thanks everyone for the help so far in finding parts. I thought I would share my new Mooney Resurrection project. The pics on this post show the plane, about 10 years ago before, and after the hangar accident as well as how I purchased it last month (It came with the cowling and inspection panels). Thanks to the help from people on this board, I now have an engine, prop and baffles. I'll be posting pics of the restoration in this new topic. My goal is to keep the interior and exterior original, but have a nearly zero time mechanicals and a full Dynon glass Avionics system with GTN 650 or 750 GPS.
  14. Yep - no u-joint connecting front and rear shaft. Anyone have one?
  15. I have the trim wheel and the shafts back past the battery, but the the rear shaft starting around the battery to the back square slip joint was just sitting in the tail and was not connected to the front shaft. It appears that I might only be missing the swivel U-Joint which connects the two. Perhaps the electric trim gear sits in place of this swivel? I'll get some pictures next time I get to the hangar.
  16. Thanks! This M20J manual image is better than the parts manual I have for the 1969 M20F. On PDF page 376, image J27-4001, I appear to be missing the swivel u-joint called 10-A which joins the back shaft to the front shaft.
  17. I purchased a 1969 Mooney airframe (sans motor, prop and autopilot). The elevator trim shaft (going to tail) is not connected to anything on the cockpit end. I assume there was a trim motor and gear system that was removed when they took out the Stec autopilot. Does this entire mechanism come with a new autopilot system, or is the trim system an individual component. If it is individual, where can I purchase a new or used trim motor+gears so that I can hook up my elevator trim again? If I can't find electric trim, then perhaps I'll need to find the missing parts to connect the tube from the tail to the tube from the trim wheel. Anyone have a picture of that?
  18. I need one also. Anyone else have a prop for my 69 M20F?
  19. Thanks for the offer. Unfortunately, I don't have any baffles at all to use as a template. I purchased a 1969 Mooney M20F without an engine. All I have to go by are the picture of the baffle system in the parts guide. Lasar did get back to me and said that they had the front Right and both rear-side baffles in stock. The two front-side baffles are in their system but are out of stock. They don't have the front left, or either of the rear baffles in their system.
  20. I sure could use some help finding someone to make M20F baffles as well. Please let me know if anyone has a contact who could help me. Thanks!
  21. I too am in desperate need for M20F baffles. If you do decide to make them, please let me know.
  22. https://www.garmin.com/en-US/newsroom/press-release/aviation/garmin-receives-additional-gfc-500-autopilot-certifications-3/ I just noticed that there was a recent (2021) AD that now covers pre-1965. I assume this means I do not need to replace my ailerons.
  23. Greg, Did you need to update your ailerons? I have a 1962 and it seems there is no STC for pre-1965 M20C's
