No, I don't use Evans,
but I think its perhaps time to change the hoses, and fit the new
clamps from rotax.
thanks

Hi there,
Are you using Evans?
I have just had to change my Radiator Hoses after 150 hours using
Evans - it seemed to soften them and developed a leak on the ends -
tightening the clips didn't achieve anything. The hoses had expanded
before the clamps and had gone "Squishy".
Hoses have been changed and Evans flushed out and replaced with 50/50
glycol mix and all is now well again.
regards

Leaking problems here too. As long as the engine is warm, not a drop. If i don't
use the engine heater, there will be a few drops. Seems to be a problem caused
by different expansion ratios. The traditional screw type hose clamps are not
good enough. However i could only find Rotax 17 mm spring clamps. Anyboby with
a source and or partnumber for 25 mm spring hose clamps?

Hi Jos
"Anyboby with a source and or partnumber for 25 mm spring hose clamps?"
I am not a tremendous fan of hose clamps that hold a constant dimension on
something that heats up and cools down. If you overtighten to prevent cold
leaking, it can permanent damage hose once things expand when things warm
up.
http://rotorclip.com/
to the rescue.
Rotax changed over to band style spring clamps for coolant hoses for just
the reason described.
www.mcmaster.com sells Wide-Band Self-Tightening Spring Hose and Tube
Clamps on page 252.
I know I ordered a full compliment for my 914 install, some from McMaster,
and some from Rotorclip. I can't remember if I ordered direct from
Rotorclip, or if they gave me a distributor and ordered from them.
For what it is worth, I have a set of blue Silicone hoses for 914, which
are slippery creatures compared to traditional hose.

PS McMaster has a nice selection of Miniature Bolt Hose and Tube Clamps in
304 SS on page 251 "fuel, sight, vent" line and other from 19/64" up to
45/64".

Hi Jos
I used Vauxhall/Opel/GM Part number 90572595 spring clamps,
I have used Silicone hoses on my 914 which are slightly thicker than the
stock Rotax hose, But these clips are suitable for both type of hoses,

Subject: | Restarting my build |
Hi folks,
It's been a long time since I posted anything here after to a long hiatus in
my Europa-building activities due to changes in my personal circumstances
(divorced, moved house three times, remarried - you get the picture).
However, I am now installed in my new workshop and ready to retrieve all my
aeroplane bits from my mum's garage.
Before I get my wings into the workshop, however, I thought I would have a
go at baking the control surfaces that I have made so far. I have some
insulation panels left over from insulating the workshop, so I am going to
build myself a big oven. However, I vaguely remember seeing some discussion
here a while back about supporting the items whist they are being heated to
avoid distortion, but I can't find the messages in the archive - I'm
probably searching with the wrong key words. So if anyone has any advice in
this area, I would be very grateful for it.
Finally, if anyone here still has a link to my old website, I have moved it
to www.ricks.me.uk/europa and I will try to keep it up to date as I
progress.
I look forward to talking to you all more frequently in the coming years!
Regards
Rick Sivier

Subject: | Floscan fuel flow sensor - LAA mod approval |
Hi folks
I'm submitting a mod form to the LAA for the installation of a
(single) Floscan fuel flow sensor.
It would help if I had some previous examples of other Europas which
have had this mod approved by PFA/LAA. All help appreciated.
Also, please could you say where you have installed the transducer?
Many thanks in advance.

Thank you guys for the rescue. Because i have a very non-standard cooling system,
i had to make connections from different pieces of hose. It looks like a patch
blanket :-) As a result there are a lot more possible leaking conections as
i would like.
Remembers me: I have a brand new oil cooler, which i will not use. Available for
shipping costs.
