Very interesting. Gas cap gaskets are less than mo and plane is kept hangered. I sumped prior to first flight and very throughly before 2nd (night) flight. I had recently added 80 gal. I’ll look into this further…thank you for sharing your experience.

Sounds like a good place to start. I'll update my progress...

I can't say for sure but I would not rule that out regarding the retract cycle. No gear unsafe light during any of the events. Passengers both pro pilots and said it felt like King Air hydraulic's "sucking the gear back up".

Two flights today in 1997 M20R. 20 minutes into first flight felt a "bump". It felt like like the engine missed, no indication on engine monitor of anything amiss. The remainder of the flight was normal and I wrote it off. Second flight was similar but when the "event" occurred, the rear seat passenger reported a thump from under the seat. It was a 40 min flight but felt the bump two more times. Lowered the gear early and no issues. Thought I may have an issue with a gear door but everything was tight on inspection...Again, nothing unusual on the GEM or other engine gauges. 3000 hr in the "R" and never seen this one...any ideas on where to start would be greatly appreciated.

My '97 Ovation has a low volts annunciation that stays on for the first hour of flight. Both batteries show 27.5v on the engine monitor and the amp gauge shows 0 discharge. When I turn on all things electric, the low volt annunciation stops for a few minutes then slows starts flashing. Before I start changing parts, I'm wondering if anyone has seen this before?

Would you happen to have a KFC 150 computer? KAS 297B Altitude preselect?

How much are you asking for it?

is the beacon and power supply still available?

I am interested in the knob that controls the overhead air vent and the dust covers for both the main and nose wheels, are those available?

'92 MSE, i would be interested in the recog light. I've replace a lamp and both lens on both sides show minor distortion.
