Subject: | Re: Engine rubber mounts |
Roland,
The purpose of the sleeve is to act as a spacer so that the rubbers are compressed
to the correct amount and no more.
There is no need for the nuts to be torqued as such in this application.
Once the nut starts to lock up because of the spacer taking the load, turn the
nut only enough then to align the first castellation for the split pin. In fact,
depending on how it feels, it might be best to back off the nut to the first
available castellation.
Regards

Hi Roland,
I have got an engine lift if you need to borrow one.

Kingsley, yes - good advise. Seems like I'll have to be more careful with my power
:-)
Barry, thanks for your offer, but my mechanic in Venlo also has a lift. I guess
that Christoph ade a good suggestion to change one vertical pair first, provided
that one gets enough movement and space to insert the MT04's on the opposite
side. However it should be a good idea to secure the engine with a lift.

Kingsley is right. I did some research many years ago, I found that the Eur
opa supplied rubbers were much harder than the Rotax supplied ones (I was t
rying to reduce engine noise levels). Apparently Europa were supplied by a
differnet manufacturer and hardness was notthe same.
I used the softerones eventually and adjusted the engine alignment by using
washers between the engine mount and the fuselage frame. I remember that l
onger bolts were needed.Graham

Gents, in case its useful a pic of the gas strut mechanism installed on kit 121
(which i now own and is registered as G-YETI). I am also in receipt of recent
correspondence from Andy Draper who accepts this as 'Trivial' on the basis that
the function of the strut is unchanged by this MOD. Regards, Clive

Subject: | NARCO COM 810 + TSO radio tray plug wiring |
Does anyone have the plug pin connection instructions for this old radio? The display
on mine has failed after 19 years and I must replace the radio with a new
8.33 KHz channel spaced model.
Someone very kindly sent me this information after I mistakenly told him that my
old radio is a NARCO COM 810 TSO, when in fact the 810 + has the difference
of one less plug pin connection. His was a 12 x 2 way connector, whereas mine
is 11 x 2 way. Strange that the + version should have one less pin!
Only a few of the wires in my airframe loom have identification labels, so if someone
could provide me with more accurate info, it would save a lot of difficulty
involved in tracing wires. I know this is a long shot, but I'm constantly
amazed by the help to found in our forum.
