Andy95W Posted May 13, 2020 Report Posted May 13, 2020 Are you sure you got the inner wire pushed sufficiently into the tube before putting it on? (Forgive me for asking if you already did this.) Quote

Looking at other websites, the last number (91) is the largest diameter of the pipe in 32nds of an inch, so 91/32nds is 2 and 27/32nds, or 2.84375", making 2.75" pipe really quite possible. the smallest size it's supposed to close is 2 13/32nds, which is 2.40625", more than the 2.25" that Aircraft Spruce quotes. Really, 2.5 is closer to the butter zone, better get back to trying the duct I have... Measure the aluminum bib on the air box. Aero duct tubing is sized in 1/4”, Scat 4 is 1” diameter and so on.

The Other Red Baron Posted December 16, 2022 Report Posted December 16, 2022 Does anyone have a picture of this mixture box and valve on the co-pilot side? Quote

It supplies air to a 2" vent just behind the pilot seat aimed at the back passenger's foot. Are you sure? Looking at the lip on part 12, it is hose 18. Quote
