    Subject: Throttle box cable sleeve retention TH04
    From: "graeme bird" <graeme@gdbmk.co.uk>
    I was messing with the throttle box yesterday to ensure parallel operation of carbs. The end of one cable outer was firmly retained in the throttle box threaded feed through TH04 but one was loose (which might have been my fault). I can't recall or see if these came fixed in to the feed through or whether the spiral on the belden cable outer kind of screws into them or whether or not it needs to be fixed. I always have the carb wire locked to prevent it moving. Does it screw in? has it broken? Should it be wire locked at the throttle box end or the cable outer fixed to something? -------- Graeme Bird G-UMPY - Mono Classic/XS FFW 912S, Woodcomp SR3000/3W CS, trutrak Gemini 2 axis AP, PAW, PFLARM core, ads-b out, 8.33khz, mode S, FP-5, Aera500, SD on Nexus, Smart A3 350 hours &amp; 6 years on the Mono, 930 total g(at)gdbmk.co.uk Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=483804#483804

    It's me again, Graeme. As you indicated in your previous posting, we both have Classics and probably have the original throttle cables supplied by Europa. Without going to the airfield and back in order to look at my throttle box and refresh my memory, I seem to recall that the fittings on both ends of each cable are "welded" to the spiral of the Bowden sheath. If this is so, then I guess that you're looking a replacement of the cables. Iain Clarke recently had throttle cable problems which he eventually managed to sort out. He discovered after purchasing the cables supplied by the factory that they have an inherent rough feeling when being operated, no matter what he did in order to route them smoothly with wide bends and copious amounts of lubricant. Eventually he bought cables from a different source, which are lined inside with nylon and that was the end of both roughness and difficulty of balancing the carburettors. You'll need to check that facts with him, I suggest. http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?t=16770506 Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=483805#483805

    Hi all, Just wanted to say that i acquired Nevilles master set of moulds for his revised cowling (the ones shown on the EC website under 'Cowl and Cooling) - from Jagjit Chaggar a few weeks ago. Please contact me by email [clive.maf(at)googlemail.com] if you are interested in buying a set. Nigel Graham (as club MOD specialist and layup aficionado) and I intend to collaborate on requests for these cowlings.

    Hi Rowland, I cant comment on the mounting frame nor do I have details about the baffles - though I believe that you are perhaps one of the best informed people about them (you have a set? - from which cardboard templates are/can be made for at least one frame/engine/prop combination)?
