    Subject: Changes at NSI
    --> Kitfox-List message posted by: "Michael Logan" <michael.logan@cox.net> Jim, If you had one of the early engines, the most likely problem is with your coil combiners or the hall effect pickups since electronic ignitions don't usually go bad slowly, at least not in my experience. NSI had a problem with the early pickups and coil combiners both. I replaced both of them with new units from Lance, of course I had to pay through the nose for the parts too. I am now in search for another set of coil combiners so if you hear of any, let me know. Mike Logan -----Original Message----- From: owner-kitfox-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-kitfox-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Jim Crowder Subject: Kitfox-List: Changes at NSI --> Kitfox-List message posted by: Jim Crowder <jimlc@att.net> I have been in contact with NSI both Friday and Today. Lance is gone and new management is in place. There is a name change to MG Propulsion Systems, if I got that right. It was apparently not a friendly separation with Lance. The overall owner remains the same. Craig is still there although not in either time I called. The good news is that they are answering the phone except during lunch time. My new problem is that I have lost one side of my duel ignition. I lost it slowly, but finally completely while running the engine on the ground over the period of one hour. Mine is one of the early production models with I assume, an early ignition system. I have reviewed some of the List emails from 2002 on the subject. More good news is that I was put in touch with Bob Eatwell who is in charge of new electrical design for the new company. He is from England and in fact is leaving for a week in England tomorrow. As I will be heading for Minnesota on Wednesday for a week, he will be back about the same time I am back. He asked me to do some more trouble shooting and in the meantime he will obtain data on my system. I am to call him back and he will be prepared to work through the system with me. Maybe then I will finally get my plane flying. All together I only have about 11 flight hours on the plane. I am determined to stick with it and work the bugs out this time. :) For now I can report that they are very business like in their response, say they have plenty of resources, and intend to get the new company on the road. I got no feeling that they were going to sideslip old problems. Those of you who have issues with NSI, I suggest you give them a new call. Jim Crowder

    Subject: Electrical Conductivity of 2216 ShoeGoo/Goop
    --> Kitfox-List message posted by: "Fox5flyer" <morid@northland.lib.mi.us> Pretty much anywhere. Walmart, Home Depot, hardware stores. Might even try ebay. The stuff was originally marketed to runners who would wear out their expensive running shoes. It's good for repairing delaminated soles, etc. Works great as a support on electricals, especially where several wires come together. There's another version called Goop that's pretty much the same thing.

It's a Playground" -----Original Message----- From: owner-kitfox-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-kitfox-list-server@matronics.com]On Behalf Of Doug Sloan Subject: Kitfox-List: Model IV with Rotax 582 --> Kitfox-List message posted by: "Doug Sloan" <dougsloan@nctv.com> I have inherited a Classic IV kit with a Rotax 582 LC engine. This kit is still in the original packaging. My grandfather never made it to assemble this airplane. In reviewing the packing slip, the following options were added: Cargo container mounting brackets, gascolator and mounting bracket, prop - 3 blade fixed, antenna mount plates, speed fairing kit, vents, auxiliary wing tank kit (left and right), and full instrument panel. The rest seems to be the standard full kit. I have all of the manuals, invoices, etc. I was wondering if anyone could tell me what this kit was worth or give me an idea how to sell this. I am a hobby pilot that flies Cessnas and have never attempted a taildragger transition. I do not have an interest in building a plane either. If anyone can help, my e-mail address is dougsloan@nctv.com. Thanks.

    Subject: Need cover for Model IV
    --> Kitfox-List message posted by: "Luis Rodriguez" <wingnut@spamarrest.com> I made the mistake of purchasing a model IV before securing hangar space. Turns out that there's a long waiting list at my airport. The cover I have now is a home brew deal that isn't doing the job. After a couple of rainy days, I found her with a couple of quarts of water in the fuselage despite the drain hole in front of the tail spring. The water is getting trapped somewhere and I had to raise the tail to drain it out the front. Kinda scary. Is there an aircraft cover on the market that will keep her dry? Should I just fold the wings and throw a tarp over her? Any suggestions would be most appreciated. Luis, 824KF

The torque for anything on a Kitfox airframe should be found in AC 43-13, Table 7-1. If your fuselage is the same as mine you'll use AN4 hardware which has a "recommended" torque of 50-70 in-lbs. and a "maximum allowable" of 100 in-lbs. (Be sure to increase these to account for lock nut friction.) Guy Buchanan K-IV 1200 / 582 / 99.9% done, thanks mostly to Bob Ducar.

    Subject: Firewall Edge Seal
    --> Kitfox-List message posted by: "Bradley M Webb" <bmwebb@cox.net> Here's what I did on my 2: Home Depot Aviation Dept. has what is called caulk saver. Basically it's a round grey foam extrusion that's about 3/4" diameter. Costs about $6.00USD for 20' or so. Take this, and using a razor blade, run a slit to the center of the tube the length of your run. Now fill this slit with a bead of the adhesive of your choice (I used clear RTV (Really Tough Vaseline)), and slip it over the edge. Apply cowling and let sit until RTV cures. Now remove said cowling, and apply 3" Aluminum tape (speed tape) over the edge seal, and voila! Cowling sealed and custom fit.

    --> Kitfox-List message posted by: Norm Beauchamp <nebchmp@wcc.net> With no one responding with any part number from ACS or other supplier. I went to JCWhitney just for grins. Under weatherstripping, trunk and tailgate, 74-87 GM cars. Looks as if it might work. I don't see any numbers as to size though. It says they will send a sample. I'll be gone for a week, I'll try to get more information later. Norm > >

    --> Kitfox-List message posted by: James Shumaker <jimshumaker@sbcglobal.net> PLEASE keep in mind that this is a FIRE WALL. You do not want hot gases flowing across a seal that can burn. This will bring in Very toxic gasses as products of combustion. Jim Shumaker Norm Beauchamp <nebchmp@wcc.net> wrote: --> Kitfox-List message posted by: Norm Beauchamp Great idea ! Bradley.

    Subject: Re: Firewall Edge Seal
    --> Kitfox-List message posted by: Alan & Linda Daniels <aldaniels@fmtc.com> I have been using this type seal on my Vixen since 97 with good results. Cheep, easy, and makes a very good seal, but not totally fireproof. But neither is the fiberglass cowl.
