markejackson02 Posted April 24, 2017 Report Share Posted April 24, 2017 While the prop is off I changed oil and fixed some cowling stuff. Noticed the metal baffle above the #2 cylinder is cracked. The Mooney part manual is a little unclear about this part number. I'm guessing the part number is 600368-005 and the whole assembly is 600368-501? Are these normally available as a lone part? I may just create two doubling plates from 0.025 and rivet them into place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetdriven Posted April 24, 2017 Report Share Posted April 24, 2017 (edited) They often crack there. Fabricate a doubler ffrom .032 2024 t-3 and rivet with AN470 Rivets. Edited April 24, 2017 by jetdriven 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did that but put a small 90 degree flange on it to stiffen it up. Been working well for 9 years now.Sent from my LG-LS997 using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dale Logsdon Posted April 24, 2017 Report Share Posted April 24, 2017 If you repair it with 6061 T6 it will last longer on a baffling repair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
75_M20F Posted April 24, 2017 Report Share Posted April 24, 2017 (edited) Airforms has a PMA for them, better quality and lower price then OEM. https://www.airforms.biz/index.php?route=product/manufacturer/info&manufacturer_id=14 $128.00 with silicone seal, you will need to specify red or orange of whatever color that is though.
