Another reason for burping the tank it to make sure the hydraulic lifters have been purged of any air in the system.

Of course the scraper ring isn't going to remove all the oil that's why l said it would use hardly any oil it has to use some oil.
-
It should use hardly any oil the oil ring lubricates on the way up the scraper ring clears it on the way down and the compression does what it says

l thought no person could be trained or train in a 19 registed aircraft only certified ones.

Hi Phil You should be able to make a mount to suit the bed mount for the 582 it should sit low enough to have the 582 upright then mount the gear box to match the cowl. cheers Geoff. http://api.ning.com/files/ERLACroDwLrJDxHRMk8HpgKR1iakwgNYkus*HBx6LZj0GLJxKNvOsS8GIBQwLGOtw4BqBISDFdcDUuOuE2MshlFbkIDEt*bk/SimoniniV2.png

Hi Phil Yes l have to get some 1.6 mm lexan for the screen and l am going to replace the windows on the doors also. Still haven't painted yet cant win its either to hot and today its 18 deg to cold . Do you have a tap on the floor for your fuel if so what type is it l am going to start run the aluminum fuel line under the fus to the fire wall and make a cap to cover it from stones . How much do you have to do to finish off apart from the motor installation. cheers Geoff.

You can Alan if you do as you are told don't think don't use your brains you should just fit in to the RAA and take it where the sun don't shine.

Hi Phil No l haven't heard of the Simonini engines l goggled them they are dearer that 582 . If the wife says buy a new one then BUY BUY before she changes her mind. The price of the 582 with the e type box it a good deal you can get cheaper rads than the price they are asking, l should be able to dig up a oil tank for you from German if that's the way you are going. l picked up the new horse today for the wife so she is happy now , l can spend thousands on my planes again. cheers Geoff.
-
Hi Phil Sounds good but what comes with it does that include exhaust, rads ,oil system. cheers Geoff
-
Hi FM the ratio should be stamped on the front of the box there is a small flat rectangle check there. cheers Geoff.
-
Hi FM the best combination for that size prop with 582 is C type box with ratio of 2.62:1. cheers
-
Good luck Mark hope you have a speedy recovery. Cheers Geoff.

Hi Met if you fly close to a nuclear blast the EM pulse should de magnetize the Fox youwill suffer other problems but a least your compass should work correctly cheers Geoff.

Hi Bacon Yes spray it on then rub it in with a soft cloth l use about 1/2 liter to do the wings and tail plane l don't do the underside .
-
Hi Flyerme that radiator looks like it would produce a lot of drag do you need it on that angle. cheers Geoff.
-
Hi Phil Put some thinners on a scotch brite give it a good clean scuff it up a bit just before you are going to paint it wipe it down with some prep sole then etch prime it don't etch prime unless you are going to top coat it with in two hours if you do that you will get a better bond between paints. l did the doors today new skins they are ready to paint ,just got to buy the lexan for the screen and doors,roofs all done. cheers Geoff.
-
Hi Dazza Love the color scheme is it a twin seater hard to tell in this light.

Hi Bacon Also put some UV protection on your new skins will help with the stains plus make them last longer its called Aero space protectant 303 l put it on about twice a year over summer . cheers Geoff.
