I understand that you only need one radiator but as my two do not cope with extended taxiing, the single radiator for the Laminova would have to be huge. On-line the applications seem to be automotive and they say that an oil thermostat isn't needed. I assume that is because there is a water thermostat. So is a water thermostat required for the Laminova ? Hopefully someone can enlighten me. Richard Holder G-OWWW

    Hello I have the classic cowling and original 2 piece cooling radiators. They handle the 100hp ULS without any problems. My highest readings were 110 degrees C. I use waterless coolant. Very happy with this set up. However, the original 80hp size oil cooler is having difficulties when it gets hot summer weather on climb out. The differential is about 20 degree Celsius between both, rather consistently, the oil being the hotter part.

    Subject: Re: Possible Leaking Fuel Tank!
    James, Warning! While a pipe clamp can be very useful to stop fuel going all over the place while working with flexible pipes, please be very careful when using it, either during installation or later in service. Ensure that the clamp you use has smooth round (at least 1/4 inch diameter) jaws and apply no more pressure than is needed to stop the fuel flow - do not crush the pipe. Andy Draper of the LAA has warned that the action of clamping can lead to internal break-up of the tube material, making debris in the system and leakage. This is all the more dangerous because the clamp may leave no sign of damage that an external inspection might pick up before trouble occurs. Pete Jeffers offers the advice that replacement is best done by removing each pipe in turn, cutting the new piece to match the length, then fitting it and securing both ends before disconnecting the next one. This way you avoid the possibility of making a mistake by cross-connection. Double check that you are fitting fuel filters the correct way round, matching the arrow marking with the direction of flow. There should be no tight radii or kinks, and pipes should be secured so that they do not flop around (but do not tie them to electrical cables!). When all the new pipes are in place and you have checked all connections for tightness, flush the system through by disconnecting the carburettors and operating the pumps to feed fuel into a suitable container, until you are sure there is no debris remaining. For complete peace of mind, as recommended by your inspector, carry out full system flow and pressure tests in accordance with the Europa engine installation manual. For the Rotax 914, the instructions are in the Europa XS Rotax 914 Engine Manual Issue 7 June 2004 Page 9 - 3. Further information is available from the Rotax website https://www.rotax-owner.com/en/support-topmenu/engine-manuals#914-series-eng ines, from which you can download installation and maintenance manuals. For a UK owner, the replacement of hoses and subsequent system checks should be signed off by your LAA inspector. If you wish to make any changes to the system while you are replacing the pipes, the LAA inspector may approve the routing, but any changes to system configuration that differ from the manual or an approved modification would require LAA approval. Hope this helps.

Hi James You only have an extra oil line to the turbo so it's virtually the same job as a 912. Make sure you get some long reach pipe clamp wrench. It makes the job much easier. Also don't be afraid to remove the intake manifolds of the top of the engine. They are sealed by rubber o rings so no gaskets to worry about. Good luck.

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? Thanks to all who responded to my original query and to those who may respond again. Regards and Happy New Year to everyone.
