Question: are the bushings, bolts and other parts listed in the parts manual applicable to this beech kit? also how tight should this assembly be? Seems like a little play is advisable what with all the movement that goes on during gear retraction. Question #2 The E-80 starter slips a little on a cold start.. later (warmed engine) starts are normal. I understand that the friction can be tightened without resorting to an overhaul; .. any experience here? Pete 4579V ss1221
