    Subject: Thanks
    --> Europa-List message posted by: "Fergus Kyle" <VE3LVO@rac.ca> To those who answered my plea regarding the teeny square flap on the top of the cooling duct for the 914, my thanks. It's true that it was shown in one photo of the duct, but so are many other things which it seems are 'not typical' or library holdovers. Cheers, Ferg Kyle Europa A064 914 Classic

    MessageSort of had the same problem, but mine was fixed by cleaning the commutator. I take it that the brushes were still serviceable and orientated correctly. Duncan McF ----- Original Message ----- From: G-IANI To: europa-list@matronics.com Sent: Saturday, July 15, 2006 9:38 AM Subject: RE: Europa-List: Trigear Flap Drive G-IANI has the old (pre 2001) flap drive motor. Over the last two weeks this has become first temperamental then stopped completely. The wiring and switch all checked out fine and it started working again. This lasted about 10 flap cycles. After this failure I removed the motor cover and found the commutater and brushes oily and carbon covered. Cleaning this up and replacing everything had it working again for about 10 cycles but it has now stopped again. Has anyone had a similar experience? If so how did you fix the problem? Is it practical to rebuild the motor? Can we still get spares for this motor or a replacement motor? Does anyone have an unused old type flap motor spare. If you have to fit the new flap drive are there any special problems with this? Any help would be appreciated as we would like to be flying in this good weather.
