| Subject: | Looking for a 3 in 1 gage, hydraulic line update |
Clear DayHello,
Am trying to locate a round, 3 in 1 gage (Oil pressure, oil temp, fuel
pressure) for an Aero Commander 680 FLP. The old one has a loose glass
face and it's affecting the working of the oil temp indicator needle.
(The gage is also susect to erroneous readings for oil temp even when
it's not affected by the glass) I know where I can send it out to be
rebuilt (they don't have an up and ready gage) but the down time is
10-15 days. Part number is: 273-7TN12. Anybody got one reasonably
priced?
I wrote a while back about two hydraulic lines that broke within two
hours flying time of each other. There were lots of email here about
hydraulic lines, many gave me some good things to think about. Just for
everyone's information, here's the story on both lines. The first was a
very short line in the left wheel well that connected the aux pump
pressure switch to the aux system. It broke at the flange. It's been
replaced. The second line had a fine corrosion leak and that line's
purpose was to retract the gear. That line was about 51" long and ran
between the right engine nacelle (left side) and through the wing
section between the right engine and the fuselage. I haven't seen the
line yet but that's what the A&P folks tell me. It's been replaced and
pressure checked OK. Maintenance said the other lines throughout the
area look OK. Test flight Friday.
Am going to have maintenance spray some corrosion preventive stuff
throughtout the plane soon. Does that stuff work?
Just wanted to fill in the info related to my hydraulic problem. All
seems OK there now. I'm getting good at using the nitrogen system for
gear extension...2X in 3 flights.
Not sure who mentioned it to me, but I'm pulling the aux pump circuit
break after lift off from now on. Did so the last flight and the
brakes, flaps and steering worked. Not sure if that's the reason, but
the way the system's set up it sure makes sense.
Thanks,
Ray Mansfield
