  1. Has anyone recently installed a Teledyne AlphaBeam from Aircraft Spruce in their 201J? If so, did it fit without tremendous effort? Was it worth the price? Many thanks.
  2. At that low a power setting, and this time of year, that sounds about right. I usually cruise a little higher (7-9) in my '88 J model, but the numbers look very similar. I like my oil temp to get above 170 if possible, and this will typically happen running 2300 RPM and 24 inches of manifold. As many will tell you, you can run at higher power settings, and the oil temp will increase. There are those who say that you should run the oil temp to about 180 degrees for an hour to remove all the moist contaminants from the oil, thereby prolonging the life of your engine by reducing corrosion possibilities.
  3. Also looking for a good MSC in the northeast.......suggestions?
  4. Thanks Jose, I also found that the darn thing worked once in a while....so the contact cleaning sounds very realistic. I've been told that Conrad at the Radio Shop in Worchester, MA is pretty good at these machines. Pete
  5. My Century 2000 autopilot is unreliable. The unit appears to be viable, but not working correctly. Does anyone have a shop they can recommend that is not grossly overpriced, but still seems to know what they are doing?....know of authorized repair facilities for this unit? I'm in the northeast.... New York, Mass, NJ or PA preferred.
