I suspect Mooney did this on the ground some how. Maybe they jumped the gear position switch. Short of that start the plane on the ramp set throttle 12 to 13"MP and lock in place shutdown the engine. Move plane into hangar, place on jacks, retract the gear and adjust throttle position SW until the horn comes on. Cycle the gear couple of times to verify.

Thanks most of the wear is typically on the link. The bushings usually don't wear too much. I'll let you know if I need them. I haven't taken the nose gear off yet.

no,

found one

is a nose gear retract link available with out without other noes gear parts?

I'm looking a nose retract link Part # 530068-001 or 530003-7 (old number) I have one ordered though LASAR but it's a few months out. Also they do not have ANY bushings available due to renewing their PMA.

I have some seats out of a 65E Model. PM me if you interested.

When adding power for take off my IO360A1A has developed a stumble. This is as going from idle to full throttle and happens around 2200rpm but clears up as the engine gets to 2500 with or without the boost pump. During the engine run up there no issues. I have cleaned the injectors, intake screen on the fuel servo and the collator is clean. All intake tubes seem to be good. It sounds almost like it's lacking fuel during that throttle phase similar to advancing the throttle when leaned on the ground. Any ideas?

Replaced the battery in mine and now I can't get it to turn off. I guess I will either buy a new one or send it in to be calibrated, needs it anyway.

When I shutdown for fuel like that I set the throttle 1200 to 1300 rpm then shut down. Hopefully with the nose facing into the wind. Also as I'm in the pattern I open the cowl flaps too get little extra cooling before shutdown. After fueling or other activities and ready for the hot start I don't touch anything turn on the boost pump and turn the key to start. Usually works good for me.

People need to lean to keep their mouth shut.

Not sure if anyone from FL wants to move their plane as far west as New Orleans but we can provide space at LS40 just south of New Orleans International, KMSY. It's a grass strip and you would tied down outside but well away from the effects of Helene. I affectionately call it the trailer park of airports but it's home and doesn't cost much to be there. PM me if you are interested. I can rearrange some things and get one plane under a hangar roof.

Mine is in the garage with corrosion X on it. Well I probably need to reapply.

I have a crank from an IO360A1A left over from my overhaul. The cylinders and mags were exchanged. Crank is red tagged due to corrosion on the prop flange not usable in certified but maybe someone else might want one.

I would suspect that they are different. Either would probably be hard to find. Call an MSC to check for availability and order the correct one.
