I hope to find two of these fuel tank outlet fittings originally
produced for Graham Singleton in mod 10823.
Please message me direct if you can help.
Many thanks,

Subject: | Re: Throttle cables with solid inner (piano wire) |
Hello Paul.
My query about solid strand cable was just that . . . . a query. I
have never had an issue with kinking. While my mate and I were working
on the carbs recently, we damaged a cable and I was only considering
replacment with the solid wire arrangement.
I have now purchased some Teflon lined bicycle brake cable with stranded
inners, am in the process of reusing the end fittings inside the
throttle housing and have practiced (on the old cable) cutting the inner
cable using the twist weld method referenced on the list recently by Ron
Parigoris. I must say the twist weld method works brilliantly to stop
fraying and adds no thickness at all to the cable end making it a breeze
to insert in the clamps at the carby end.
Thank you for your concern Paul, much appreciated.
Best
Kingsley

Ah ok the matronics server stopped it.
The rubber carb flange....almost completely separated.
So when it would start i opened up the cowling and having checked the plugs
and ignition was just about the pull the float bowls off when the carb came
off in my hand as it were.
I must have landed with it close to that state. I can only guess that the
induction suction plus the turbo airbox kept the carb on in flight.

Subject: | Re: Re : IFR certification |
I think our IFR experience in our Europa is like Johns. Granted we mostly use
IFR to climb or descend thru a cloud deck and for ATC services, especially in
congested or unfamiliar airspace. Since there is no snow removal at our airport,
we do not fly much in January or February.
However, we have found our Europa carries ice without adversely changing the performance.
Obviously we try to avoid icing and usually do. We have a conventional
heated pitot which draws about 8 amps but with our modified voltage regulator,
we have capacity so it can be used if necessary. There are more efficient
pitots available today.
Since fitting an adjustable cowl flap, cabin heat and windscreen defogging is much
less a problem than originally.
Jim, with the guidance of his regular CFII, has developed detailed IFR procedures
that provide consistent results. He flies approaches frequently enough to
maintain legal proficiency and he now completes both a Biannual Flight Review
and Instrument Proficiency Check every twelve months (helps with insurance).
Our Europa flies hands off when properly trimmed (both pitch and aileron trim)
and we have no autopilot, so all piloting is by hand. Approaches are flown at
cruise settings until reaching the Final Approach Fix (FAF) at which point the
airplane is changed to landing configuration (gear/flaps down, power and pitch
for appropriate rate of descent (usually 500 fpm) and 60 kts).
Having an EFIS makes the mechanics of approaches easier because the information
is presented efficiently. The velocity vector feature of our GRT EFIS reduces
chasing the needles. Our navigation source is a Garmin GNS 430, so all approaches
are setup and performed in a similar manner. Understanding how the GNS
430 operates and having the skill to use its features is key to IFR flight.

Replacement of the rubber carb flange is called out in the 5 year rubber replacement
instruction. There was a revision to the flange that is noted in SB 914-019
R1.
Brett from Leading Edge Air Foils suggested we replace the rubber pad under the
expansion tank. It is part no. 860 826. Indeed, when we got it out the old
one was rotted.

Hi Jim,
Awesome.
Does that mean you seriously considered alu fuel lines then chose not
to!!
I see pro=99s & cons to both systems.
What is super disappointing is the fuel smell I get using Gates
Barricade from Amazon

<https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00498G5QC/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title

I sometimes wonder if it is counterfeit?
A UK supplier shows white liner which is not noticeable on my hose.

Subject: | Re: Throttle cables with solid inner (piano wire) |
This is timely! My inspection of the throttle box discovered one of the cabl
e connections was very frayed right at the TH03 throttle cable eye, hanging b
y threads!
So I am looking at my options to stay with a similar install or going to sol
id wire. I imagine to stay =9Cstock=9DI will need to order a new
cable with the TH03 cable eye connected assuming they are available?
Other wise going Erich=99s route, which allows me to order via aircraf

For those of you who haven=99t inspected this for a while, might be wo

Thanks for any further thoughts.

Subject: | Re: Throttle cables with solid inner (piano wire) |
Hello Jerry,
Do you stutter mate? Just joking . . . . . your post came through seven
times on the list!
Since only one cable was frayed, I suspect the TH03 fitting was binding
on the sleeve on which it should pivot freely. This would cause the
fitting to flex the cable at the end of the crimp as it appears it has
done. I further imagine that in cold countries like yours that after a
winter lay-up, any grease on the fitting could become quite sticky and
may well be the culprit.
Best regards
Kingsley
