I did not cash them as I had run out of pumps by the time the checks arrived. I have now finally managed to get hold of some more, so can the two please identify themselves and I will send the pumps off without delay. Many Thanks Alan -- 11:30 ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 12:16:22 PM PST US Subject: Europa-List: Rotax shroud, Europa cowling From: "josok" Hi Folks, On The lower cowling i have is an outline, which seems to be intended to connect to the Rotax cooling air shroud. Is that correct, and what is the best method to follow to make a nice join between the two?

[ If your kit was packed by Maureen, at EMIL, chances are it is missing ?] I think I have a spare if you need one? 912 and 914 FWF kits do not have them as standard. Cheers, Nev. ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 12:49:14 PM PST US From: Graham Singleton Subject: Re: Europa-List: Rotax shroud, Europa cowling JOs make a tube same diameter as the shroud inlet tube and bond that to the cowling, then cut off the ends of the two tubes so that they mate but don't touch. The cut line needs to be at right angles to the plane of the vibration, so I guess in the same plane as the engine mount rubber faces. Long time since I saw one of these so get a second opinion ;-) Graham josok wrote: > >Hi Folks, > >On The lower cowling i have is an outline, which seems to be intended to connect to the Rotax cooling air shroud.

Jos I've "just been there". Europa say that the imprinted lines on the Cowl front are only for the "hood" to cool the barrels on the 912S. However I am having a hood on my 914 when it comes.( I've had 7 years of keeping an engine cool thanks, this time I will enjoy blanking off if it is over cooled !) The best way (if you are having a hood ) is to cut out on the line and use a specially produced mask, which is a mold. You give it two coats of release agent and attach it with double sided tape then additional tape over the mold to the outside of the cowl. With it fixed in place turn over the cowl and put four layers of bid on the inside of the cowl by 25mm and mask, having prepared the area around by scuff sanding ready to lay up in the normal manner. Cover with peel ply. Allow to cure, remove all the outer tape, and prise off the mask. If you have done a good job you will need a minimal amount of filling to blend it all into the cowl and have a newly produced entrance for cooling air to pass into the hood entrance. Roger Cullum has a mold for this purpose which I have returned to him. However I'm sure that Europa are able to provide it as an off the shelf item. If you contact him and he agrees to lend it to you I could probably bring it to Gallivare over Christmas and bring it back if you had it completed by the time I leave. Regards Bob Harrison.
