Hi All,
I have just completed the five year hose replacement. carried
out a check flight and all seems well. oil pressure 4 bar t's and p's
good. no leeks found. today I went to the airfield, checked the oil and
found it took a pint of oil to top it up. tried to start the engine but
it woud'nt start. I checked the plugs and found them all oiled up.
All the oil hoses are correctly fitted, and can't see any kinks. the
engine has only done 90hrs.
All help much apreciated.
Cheers Danny. G-ceri

Hi,
We are planning to move to Scotland next year and will be taking G-LABS with us.
Currently doing some research into where we might base the aircraft. Ideal preference
would be to keep it rigged in a hangar but would consider trailering if
need be.
We expect to be located somewhere north of Edinburgh (near Falkirk). Apart from
the obvious ones (ie: Cumbernauld/ Glenrothes), any suggestions?
Also does anybody have Justin Kennedys contact details ? Please respond off list
if you can help.
Will need an inspector too !
I know Justin is on here somewhere cant find him in the member list.
Thanks,
Carl & Dot
G-LABS

First thing.
When you refilled the engine did you follow the procedure to get oil round the
engine, cooler and filter before starting or just fill the oil tank and then start.

Hi Danny
I don't know if this would cause the symptoms, but have you got the
connections to the oil tank the right way round? It's very easy to connect
them outlet to the inlet and vice versa! I did it when fitting an oil
thermostat but picked it up before starting. It sounds like you have had a
head of oil draining back into the engine.
Good luck.
Regards
Pete

Did you purge the air from the oil system by pressurizing the oil tank?

Hi Danny
Be interested to hear what you eventually find - if you can do it so can I!!
It's got to be something simple as all was well before the job was done.

Has anyone tried using the coolant to run a cabin heater?
We have carburettor heaters fitted, so it would be relatively simple to plumb a
heater into the same circuit.
