I had built my air/ oil separators with a little over one quart capacity each thinking that the oil would drain back into the rocker drain tubes after the engines were shut down. Running the oil back into the intake side of the wet vacuum pumps had concerned me, as I was afraid that the vacuum pump air/ oil separators would become over loaded and that the extra oil would wind up in the de-ice boots which feed off of the pressure side of the vacuum pumps. Did the 680F that you fed back into the vacuum pumps have boots? Do you think that my concerns are incorrect? Again thank you very much for the advice.

I have zero experience with them. dan farmer do not archive --------------------------------- ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 05:12:12 PM PST US From: "Bill Bow" Subject: Commander-List: The greatest --> Commander-List message posted by: "Bill Bow" Maybe this has something to do with AOPA members voting him the worlds greatest pilot. http://youtube.com/watch?v=vQpVI_aldB0 &search=aircraft bilbo ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 09:19:28 PM PST US From: CloudCraft@aol.com Subject: Re: Commander-List: The greatest --> Commander-List message posted by: CloudCraft@aol.com Bilbo, Thanks!
