Agricultural Trivia:Semen is collected from bulls for use in artificial insemination by placing an electrical probe up it's rectum. :yuk: Or does Turbz already know this and planning on doing some experiments on rats...

SCIENTIFIC ADVISORY - In the interest of Veterinary and Medical Science, this will be 1st trialled on humans in Wagga Wagga this evening.

Contact the Lat for tickets.

And contact Ahlow if you are a volunteer.

Disclaimer - This test is not gender specific, as we have a pink prod too.

"Horry snappin' bull sphincters!" shouted Ahloh in jubilation:jump:"Darkcastik has come to play!!"

"She even undastand the ringo." added Nobu, as he readied another lump of cordite in case the Lat takes to running away....

Ever notice how spell check is a waste of time in the NES lately?

Welcome Darky. You have made a nice contribution ..... but I fear that you are actually BlondeOptimist in disguise ............ and as a result of your input to the NES, I must issue the customary warning to all of the others that "There is a duck on the pond" so make sure your language is improved and your hands are always above the table.

"I ruv duck" volunteered Acki.

"So do I" said a nearby Angus Bull "And I would much prefer that they use one of them instead of that cattle prod".

"We are used to duck here in Wagga" said the Lat "As that is what everyone does every time Ahloh comes in to rand."

"Ahroh is OKthough" said Darky to Tubbs "As he is a ..........................

Will that be in Canberra, Ian, and at what time of the day?

Don"t worry .......... found it in your other related thread ...... sorry about that.

Bovine Observation - And some people wonder why bulls are always cranky and mostly sit in the corner of the paddock on their own.

You would too.

A mate is running a 3 blade Revolution prop on his jab. Is this or the new Bolly really any beter than the Jab prop? And wot about the advantage of the timber having no fatigue life, thats got to be a significant plus now that there are adequate epoxy leading edges for use in the rain. Any thoughts?

I have an enquiry with Sensenich at the moment for their 2 blade carbon fibre ground adjustable unit.

Contacted jabiru last week and they advised that they still only approve the timber units ............ but boy are there ever lots of CF 3 bladers around on 3300's and 2200's.

Viscous was the word.

He went down to the local Visco and started singing "VISCO visco VISCO MANNNNNN!" while dancing from one skinny leg to the other in the hope of attracting a partner, but only a stray cat showed any interest in him. She pounced....

"Stone the clows" yelled Nobu, who had his own stick of cordite ready for Nanna "I've never seen anyone sclatched THERE before by a moggie. That must really hurt, sclatched bunghole-san".

"Too right, cobber" whispered Turbo through clenched teeth while he sucked in air to disguise the pain."That's because I ...........

Yes, he is UGLY.....

Collect ...... Reave the ugry Lat arone

Because, with his gold tooth, he can be viscous (10/50).

"Don't wolly" yelled the Nob, "For I am a ...........

Ahloh is still attempting to extract pictures of the elusive Cowla Lat from the telephone. Something highry suspicious going on with them.....

Others don't do this so it is an issue with your engine.

I suggest that you check all sections of the idle circuit in the carby for intermittent or permanent blockages and the mixture of that circuit.

All it would take is a tiny piece of foreign material anywhere there to do what you suggest.

If it were me I would remove and clean all sections of the carby as the 1st place to start, and this is not a big task.

Then purge your fuel line.

Make sure that you catch anything that comes out of the carby or the fuel line (sieving thru a stocking or similar is a good way to do that .... and look out for small slivers if rubber from the fuel line that may have been cut when attached to metal parts).

Cheers, Qwerty

Now that's Tiger Country. Nice shot though.

"...sushi"

"Tee Hee" lesponded Nobu "Bunghole just made a little Japanese Lestaulant chef's "in-joke" that we think is very funneee ........ as we Japanese are well known as having a strong ability to laugh at ourselves .... plus you should see what me and Nanna can do with sushi, even on a hot Cowla day, so the Bunghole is ..........

"aviatrixes"

They all laughed and the Rat said "trixers more like it...."

"I don't just do "tricks"" said the bloke in the Pitts Special "I do an "artistic performance of aerial high-jinks", and please don't refer to me by using the derogatory Aussie term "bloke"" the bloke added.

Then Sheila added "Youze should all refer to us as ...................

Paul,

Further to my post #3 and those from others, I'll bet you R5 that the issue is in the starter motor or the stater solenoid .... with an 80% probability that it is the former.

And for the battery to leak down as quickly as you say, the wire should show heaps of amps discharge to easily light a bulb or show on a meter .... and they must almost be hot to the touch.

I hope we have been able to help you find it and you can start to enjoy your 430 the way they should be enjoyed.

Regards Geoff

While not too many forum members turned up, and we didn't all get together for a major team bonding session, at least Ross (Slarti), John (JRmobile) and I were in a team that got 3rd and a couple of bottles of wine at the SAAA's aviation trivia night on the Friday evening ........... so if anyone wants to know the name of the bloke who was the 1st Aussie to be awared a pilot's licence (it was #74 in the pommy system), or what type of aircraft Joe Blow used in the 1st flight across the Tasman, then just ask Ross or John.

But overall, I had a great time ...................

And that's where the old saying "There's no flies on our sheilas" came from

Paul,

There is definitely something wrong, as I have a J230 with the standard battery that also has a 180 Dynon and lots of other electrical load, and mine starts strongly without charge after being in the hangar for up to 4 weeks, even on cold days here.

Yours is going to need a systemmatic investigation .... but to die so quickly there has to be a good flow of power where it is leaking (or your starter motor has a fault when cranking), so a good ampmeter testing lots of wires in a systemmatic way should allow you to isolate where the problem is or isn't ........ but if I were you I would start at the battery and investigate the solenoid, the starter motor, the voltage regulator and all other large wires.

If you find any current in any wire, with everything switched off, will be a good start.

Or as Ray suggested, if the above is not your bag, then get the best aviation or auto electrician that you can find.

Let us know how you go.

Regards Geoff

………“What!!!” Spat Nob, spraying dribble like he was approaching the age of dementia, and as if to show he still had his marbles intact; “We are back in the land of our beloved Emperor, and I’m at work with all these young Macca sheilas”……… and his last word may have been his final mistake……

..... as it exposed the fact that Nobu fancied the Skippy B&S sheilas more than he did the Geisha sheilas.

And he explained "That's because the Geisha sheilas don't ........................

The Japanese escapees were kicking up their heels seeing the sights of modern Osaka, so they had no need for RVanythings. Aki was immediately appointed CEO of the JeansRUs chain, Nob got a jib at McDonalds, Michio went in Unemployment, and the others decided they'd just bum around on Harleys for a few months.

But in reflective moments, over 7 hand-grenades of hot Saki, Acki was known to reflect in words to the following effect ... "But I do miss the free spirit, the Henry Lawson like qualities and the laconic style that I have known to love in the Skippy psychy, which is reflected in the new Board of RA-Aus ............. I miss the cheap meat ....... and I miss Nanna (ohhh how I miss Nanna) so I'm gunna go back to that ASIC-free land on the Lachlan that I long to call home, as soon as I sober up, I'll buy 100 prime acres, build an 800 m strip (with a 500 m X-strip for mergencies), and I'll get me a 170 or a SportSzar".

"What do ya reckon Nob? Are you with me? And if so we'll ...........

"Come on your blokes" said Acki to Tacky (who had been smoking some wacky tabaccy) "Lets just grab an RV7 and get out of here, but make sure we knock off one with tip tanks or we'll never make it."

"There is an emaculate RV10 down in Row 7" answered Nobu, being ever the tightarse "That would take all of us, thereby allowing us to share the fuel bill and other running costs."

"No" responded Acki "Bugger the RV10 and all the other RV's. I'm waiting for Ahlocks's SportStar. I heard his inbound call on the Icom handheld that Nobu bought on eBay, and as soon as he gets here I'm gunna grab it (as he seldom locks it up for fear that he won't be able to get it unlocked in time)."

"You know" reflected Nobu "How when we all hitched up to Natfly last time, everyone reckoned that Jabiru's are like bums. Well here in Cowra at this SAAA knees-up, RV's are like dings too."

"That is why I long for the glorious 'difference' and performance of a SportStar, so duck up to the servo and get me 4 gerald-cans of premium unleaded, a hat and some 30+ sunscreen, a rivet gun and a ...........................

"Yes" said Acki "That's the guy. As I undertand it his family moved to the states and have made a fortune developing and selling electrical gear, but Slartifastback will be able to explain all about that as he is a wizz on this, at sticking battered savs in his ear, and ...............
