“The manufacturer recommends keeping fuel in them on a regular basis .they don’t want them to sit dry for a long period of time it will cause dry rot…If by any chance this should happen the bladders can be reconditioned” … Griggs Aircraft.

Griggs installed the B800 8-bag 64 gal system in my 1963 M20C. Went from 48 gal to 64gal ! Right at a week turn around. I’m very impressed with their skills . They did a great job!

The Q and A on aircraft spruce says the caps are 2-3/8 inch diameter....my current caps are 2 inch diameter. Are you sure these will fit?

It's an aviation paint shop and the surfaces are pristine. They prime then paint (PPG). Talking with a Mooney engineer, no Max weight...prime, paint and balance per M20J MM methods ( add or subtract weight as needed to balance aileron ) Engineer explained the M20J MM expanded the "How To" method and it applies to all models...refer to figure 27-17 and the Note below it in the M20J Service and Maintenance Manual...

1963 M20C at the paint shop...plane gets painted, time to balance ailerons and rudder...all are too heavy on trailing edge. 1963 MM has no info on adding or subtracting weight. Email to Mooney Tech support engineers explaining issue...after a few conversations Mooney Engineers say " use detailed instructions from the M20J MM, the methods apply to all models". Problem solved...Almost...now The paint shop wants to know max weight for ailerons and rudder...(for paint thickness) M20J MM states no max Weight, just paint and balance. Anyone ever hear of a max weight for the ailerons or rudder? Thanks
