    Subject: Re: Aileron Electric Trim Tab
    From: Keith.Miller@esa.int
    I wish i had an aileron trim on my 2 place , its very sensitive to weight imbalance either from Fuel or passenger - Keep it !!!

    From: Keith.Miller@esa.int
    I checked at the weekend my bushings on the Io240B engine mounts. see the picture attached . (See attached file: IMG_4203.jpg) this was the worst one ( lower port side) it does look like they are starting to break up and need to be replaced , ( new in 1996, first ran in 2001, just over 500 hours ) Keith From: "Tim Yoder" <ftyoder@yoderbuilt.com> To: "'KIS-LIST MATRONICS'" <kis-list@matronics.com>, Date: 08/04/2014 05:26 AM Subject: KIS-List: FW: docs Sent by: owner-kis-list-server@matronics.com For those who have a Cont. IO-240 B1B in there TR-1 and haven't changed there rubber mount bushings recently, here are the part numbers and what they cost me from my source. Note that the four center bushings #638255 are not the same as used in the O-200. I had to remove my oil filter and adaptor in order the remove the bottom right mount bolt. The gasket was the replacement for the oil filter adaptor. If you have a different model IO-240 you may not need the gasket. It is a bit of a chore but well worth the effort.

    Subject: IO240B engine bushings
    Keith, My engine age and hours are very similar. I had to dig out three of my bushings as they had bonded to the engine casting. On my plane the spinner had dropped a good 1/4" over the years, Grasping the prop I could lift the engine up to its proper location. The new bushings put the engine back up. I couldn't tell any difference in flight, vibration seemed the same. It looks much better on the ramp though.

    I think it is pretty normal for the engine to settle in the mounts some. -I set my cowl up so the spinner was about 1/8" high and it settled to ab out 1/8" below in the first few hours of flight. -I ended up putting a la rge area washing under the lower engine mount bolts to even it out. -It h as not moved for 220 hours now. -=0A=0AScott=0A=0A=0AOn Thursday, August 14, 2014 1:34 PM, Tim Yoder <ftyoder@yoderbuilt.com> wrote:=0A =0A=0A=0A--> KIS-List message posted by: "Tim Yoder" <ftyoder@yoderbuilt.com>=0A=0AKeit h,=0A=0AMy engine age and hours are very similar.

    I agree, I wish I had one on my KIS TR1. Fuel usage creates weight imbalance and heavy wings. On Thursday, August 14, 2014, Randy Ott <randy.ott@gmail.com> wrote: > <javascript:;>> > > Keep it !!
