I have a classic with an 80hp. After several years of experimentation I have settled upon a cowl flap/exit air restrictor and, most important, a Laminova water-oil heat exchanger. The cowl flap keeps the coolant temperature under control (210-220F) and the heat exchanger keeps the temps in lockstep in cruise. In climb, the oil temp stabilizes at 15-20degF over coolant temp. (I attribute this to heat load in the gearbox.) If you Choose the Laminova, get the largest of the 3 standard sizes. It will not overcool. (I started with the smallest, moved to the medium and had to install a coolant restrictor to force more coolant through the heat exchange section) They are not returnable so go for the big one, its not a great deal lerger or more expensive. In descent temps go to 170-180F. Cowl flapp closed. It has been a lot of work, but I love my Laminova. I am in Vermont currently, with surface temperatures in the 20-25F range. (-5C) Warmup is a bit quicker, too. Creighton. 96EG.

From: "Mallard" This is an update on my fuel leak for anyone who is interested. At the weekend an LAA Inspector went to my aircraft and as a result of his investigation, he discovered that the Fuel Pipe from the Starboard Sump to the Starboard Fuel Drain had literally disintegrated at a point where there was an elbow in the pipe. He described the pipe as having gone very soft, so soft it had the consistency of Spaghetti & there was a hole in it, through which you could stick your finger! My next task is to replace all the Fuel & Coolant Pipes because they haven't been replaced since aircraft was built 10 years ago. Since my aircraft has a 914 engine there is more pipe work than in a 912S. Has anyone replaced all the Fuel Pipes in a 914 and if so, would you have a detailed description of the easiest way to go about the task?

( yo u need a pressure differential and this effectively cancels it out ) ..sympt om is taxi test that shows extreme asi lag .. disconnecting static line restores asi ... ( removes the balancing air strea m ) ... Slight air leaks in asi feed do not create the same ( massive ) effect. The actual flow when you try to blow through is also relatively high resista nce in normal operation .

The aircraft has not flown for 7 years. I believe I have a leak in the pitot tube system. Pitot and static lines passing through the fuselage to the instrument panel seem to be made of semi-opaque hard plastic tubing approx 7.5mm OD and use 'push-fit' conne ctors.
