The lining of the hose is completely intact with no visible damage. There was no oil residue on the inside of the fire sleeve However change in pressure with altitude suggests that the hose was compromised. The consequences of not correcting this might have been total and rapid loss of oil.

On the issue of this thread, have you used a dual meter to observe left/right manifold pressure readings through operating rpm range and while the vibration at 3500rpm is active, flickering needle on either gauge will indicate sticking valve; theres also small chance one of the choke valves is not fully returning to correct position, or a carburettor piston may be binding intermittently on the slide... then again it may not be fuel/carbi related.. if you have access to two verified good carbis then swap them out and see if the issue disappears... will be interesting to see what it ends up being !!

Of course, part numbers and retailers cha nge over time and we must keep up. I published a list many years ago for the spares for the general Europa kit as an example. On my own aircraft, I find every year I must review my par ts, part numbers (and cost) of normal expendable and time change parts. I do this at every annual/ inspection interval. I personally keep an updated list in my laptop and my cell phone's micro SD memory card. I created a fi le folder that also contains every pdf, word doc, and drawing on every piec e of equipment as well as countless wiring, service and operational informa tion or manuals necessary for service, troubleshooting and repair of my par ticular aircraft. In order to keep this data available on your computer and smart phone it is a point and click world of information which is easily downloaded, cut and inserted into a document to suit your needs (with a considerable amount of organization time I=92m afraid). I've found this data in my computer and smart phone to be invaluable. Especially when at the airport or off stati on with maintenance required. This is especially true for our second hand owners unfamiliar with maintenance of their aircraft. The information is e xcellent for troubleshooting, but also for planning the work for an efficie nt repair.

We alway s carry a new tube with us, but our spare was defective. We use a 7.00-6 6 ply tire on our mono. We tried to use the tire size to find a new tube but couldn=99t find one. We patched the old tube and returned home. It m ay help others to know, the correct tube is an AeroClassic Leakguard, part number GL-70877B and it is in stock at Desser Tire.
