Slow flap retraction?

[SpamPilot]

In my M20F with manual flaps, it takes something like 15 seconds for the flaps to retract fully.  It would be nice for them to retract faster once I'm on the ground to help transfer weight to the main landing gear.  Can anything be done?

Consider yourself lucky. If I pull my release up after touching down, they're still coming up by the time I reach my hangar. In flight they come right up from the loading. For this reason, I always set my takeoff flaps during run-up and verify they're down pre-takeoff.

Yes, there is an adjustment screw on the side of the flap master cylinder.  The service manual gives a number as to how fast they will come up.  They come up much faster in the air than on the ground.

The adjustment on the flap pump is very sensetive. Have someone put upward pressure on the flap root while checking the retract speed.

When I bought mine, the pilot I did some transition training with brought it up. The mechanics did not want to touch it for risk of breaking it. These things are old and you might be better off with slow flaps than trying to source a new part.
