    The Rotax manual specifies 2.75" from the flange to the mount point of the EGT probes. Is it a coincidence this centers right on the thick band part of the pipes where they are welded together or are these thicker parts for drilling and tapping? I have the kind that mount with clamps.

    Troy, My old and new exhausts both have uniform diameter and thickness from the block flange to the ball joint. The only care was in siting the weld-on bung so that the probe, sticking out 4 inches or so do not obstruct access to the flange nuts or fitting the cowl back on. In my new exhaust system, I have EGTs on all 4 cylinders. -------- Ira N224XS Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p 0959#200959

    Hi Steve, Before hacking up a module just make sure you don't have intermittent wires to the module. On both our plane (912S) and another 912S that we know of there were wires broken at the connectors but held in contact by the insulation (most of the time). We could not find the break with a volt meter, but just ran the engine with the cowl off and had someone wiggle/pull on the wires one at a time to see if it effected the engine operation (please stay clear of the prop). Just a thought, Terry Seaver A135/N135TD -----Original Message----- From: owner-europa-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-europa-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of steve v Sent: Wednesday, August 27, 2008 2:29 PM Subject: Europa-List: Magneto/Ign. mod.
