My classic 914 is continuing to give problems - think it has a jinx this
year!
Now I have an alternator which will sometimes work and often not. It will
cut in only at relatively high r.p.m. and sometimes not at all. I have done
all the obvious electrical connection checks and wonder if anyone has any
better ideas? Suggestions welcomed.

I have two Matronics archive cd's, one is for win 98, but can access neither from
my computer running win98. Is there a trick to these?
One will only open to the RV list and the Win 98 cd will not run at all.
Help appreciated

Your problem could be a poor connection on any of several wires going to the Rectifier
Regulator unit. Or the unit its self #965347 in the Lockwood catalog on
page "69" .
good luck

Patrick,
I would start with replacing the regulator, these can be pretty troublesome
and it they are not kept cool tend to fail pretty often.

Hi Gavin
What do you think of the Arplast compared to the NSI. I have an NSI on
a 912UL, which gives very good results, but obviously it looks as if one
needs to think ahead if a problem arises.
Regards
Pete

Dear Jean,
I sent my blades of in May for AD compliance. In July told they would be
shipped back early August. Spoke to Legrand Harris late August. He said
the previous guys were crooks and it had all folded. He was looking at a
box full of blades, unidentified. He didn't think the blade cuff was the
problem. The pbroblem was in the hub. He was working on it but would
take several months. Have sent a photo of my blades to aid
identification. No reply. Have bought an Arplast c/s - now many =A3s
lifghter.
Don't know if this will appear on forum. You are welciome to display it
if of any interest.
Regards,
Gavin Stewart

Are you sure that the CD that appears to only open the RV List
actually opens all of the various archives? The search utility that
is provided on the Disk was originally written for the RV-List
archive, and when it starts up indicates its tie with the RV-List on
the splash screen, but in reality opens up any of the archives.
If you browse the CD and go into the Europa folder, and start the
search.exe program, I believe that you will be searching the Europa data.
Let me know how it goes.

Dave,
You wanted to now, if anybody in B.C. or Alberta is flying without the
benefits of carb heat. My 912 S powered Classic has been operating for 265
hrs with a modified air-box, which operates with combustion air from a Naca
inlet in the lower cowling and can be switched to combustion air from inside
the cowling when icing occurs. It is very hot under the Classics cowling!
The interesting part is ,that I have never had to use this hot air option,
even though we have crossed the Coastal Range and the Rockies several times
and flown all the way to the Maritimes and the Yukon with never any
indication of carb ice ( read the story in the October Copa Newsletter ).The
air is routed from the Naca inlet through 3" Scat tubing into a homebuilt
distributing box on top of the airbox, then through the flat JR filter into
the airbox. Within the Scat tube I installed a 3" x 2" " Y" , which provides
cockpit ventilation air to two metal eye-ball vents in the lower centre of
the cockpit module. Works very well.
I believe that the XS cowling does not provide as much heat as the Classic ,
which in many ways is good. I still do not fully understand , why some
Europa owners have problems with carb ice. I frequently fly at the
condensation level with temperatures at the critical level with never a
murmur from the Rotax, as I am sure, other Rotax operators do as well.
These are my two-bits worth . Hope it helps.

Thanks Cliff and Paul for helpful comments. I am a reasonably good nuts and
bolts man but not so hot on electronics.
