I know the topic has been discussed dozens of times! But I can’t seem to find a definitive answer on operating RPM limitation for my particular aircraft 1962 M20C The POH that came with the aircraft looks brand new and I think it’s a generic POH for multiple years? It shows no restriction?

Perfect Thats what I need! Thank you

Can’t seem to find the bolt part numbers listed in the IPC for the rear mounting block for the main landing gear truss. Just finished sandblasting and painting the gear and I need to shim the the landing gear truss mounting block. I have the original hardware but if I add a shim I want to ensure the bolts still have proper engagement. Correct me if I’m wrong but I don’t think there is a way to see the nuts behind the blocks.

In our hangar everyone flys with a CO2 detector from the local hardware store. The type that is used in a house, small rectangular unit. Those “scratch and sniff” are useless, ask me how I know!

That works perfect Thank you

Unfortunately I’m out of the country and I’m looking for a wiring diagram for M20C 1963. Electronics International is asking if the micro switches for the gear warning and the throttle switch are power and go to ground to activate or vice versa? Also what type fuel senders (stock) I said resistance?? Thanks again

Perfect thank you

Ok Just finished bead blasting and painting my gear. Started the reassembly, noticed I have forward/ aft movement in the main gear ( co- pilot side) The upper frame mounted between the forward and aft spar? has movement it slides forward/ aft in the bearing mounts. I know there are shims available but I can’t find any information on acceptable clearance.

I have a couple of days if anyone would like to make suggestion

Perfect thank you for the worksheet I ordered the unit through spruce Spoke with Electronics International and they said I can supply the work sheet next week. Mine will be a little different than your being 12 volt / carbureted

That doesn't mean their right! If you google the steering horn you'll find examples of the shims on both sides

I have the required shims I just want to make sure which side of the bushing requires the shims. Apparently there is a process to determine which side requires the main shims. I'm thinking the rod end on the steering horn and the pivot bolt should be in alignment There is mention that in the maintenance manual there is a explanation (Not in my manual!)

I've saw mentioned in a couple of threads that there is instructions on how to check and shim the steering horn. Can someone point me in the right direction, I've searched for it but turned up nothing in the way of instructions.

Looks like I'm going to pull the trigger on the MVP-50 engine monitor! Can anyone provide any tips, suggestions, feedback Just going through the required configuration form (3 pages) and trying to determine what function and indicator / warning I should include. What can we do for the landing gear gear up, gear down ??? Any suggestion would be appreciated

Anyone???

Ok Not having a good day!! My aircraft partner just backed our freshly painted Piper warrior into the elevator on my Mooney project!! May be able to repair the elevator damage but would probably be easier to replace the pilot side elevator. SO, need a elevator M20C 1963 Does anyone have a elevator available

Self install with with AME looking over my shoulder

Looks like Electronic International has a sale going on. Their offering a $1000 rebate on the MVP-50! Its a little early for me but how can You not with the rebate? Do anybody have a suggestion on where to Purchase, in other words who offers the best price?? A couple of my engine gauges are having issues and I definitely don't like the location of the manifold pressure/ fuel pressure gauge. (extreme left side of panel)

Great I've been trying to reach him, he had his cowl closure listed on Ebay. I'm travelling to Arizona in April and was hoping to purchase one, so I can bring it back with me. (To Canada)

Hi, guys Does anyone here have any contact with ARI, I'm trying to get information on their cowl closure mod for the C. I did receive emails from them/ him in December and he said he was out of town on family business and he wouldn't be back in the office until January. I haven't been able to contact them//him since. I'm going to Arizona in April and was hoping to purchase the cowl mod then (bring back to Canada) with me. Thanks Brian

Okay, Have everything out and apart!! Mains, nose gear, steering horn. Thought I might turn a new bushing for the steering horn but I called Lasar first. The brass bushing is $80 The Nas bolt from the SB is $4.00 My steering horn has Torrington bearings where the Nas bolt goes and they look good. And I need additional shims, I don't recall their price but a couple bucks each. Also I might need a reamer to straighten the hole up for the brass bush. The rest of the landing gear is in surprisingly good shape just needs to be blasted and painted. And of course new shock disc's. These look like original era disc's Also my gear doesn't have the Mooney SB M20-202 , I probably should get the spacer in case after the updates the gear requires it era disc's

That's a good price! $30 cheaper than their web price. I'm not a dealer???

I guess its time to DO IT!!! I've look through the threads and can't find any recent ones on "Where to BUY the landing gear pucks??" I know Lasar and Spruce has them but is there a more "economical" place to buy? I saw some mention of Aviall (can anyone buy from them)

Sean, Can you give a update on your landing gear retrofit. Thank you Brian
