Not Kitfox related. I would like some information on the Mason/Leslie area if you don't mind and are familiar that area. Frank Miles Clarkston, Wash.

I charged the battery overnight before even attempting to start it. The engine would not start and eventually had to charge the battery a second time. I vertified that fuel was flowing to the engine fuel pump. On the second day after a second recharge of the battery on a trickle charger the engine finally cranked after about 30 turns of the prop and ran fine. Shut the engine down and restarted several times with no problem. I have been accustomed to my engine starting after turning only two or three blades, but this time it just turned and turned without even firing. I checked the plugs and they look clean for the most part. The lower plugs were a little wet, but not excessive. Plugs have only 25 hous on them. Would appreciate any ideas as to why this happened.

Can anyone confirm that this is a fixture and if it is how it can be replaced? This bolt has broken off about 3/16th from the end of the strut and all attempts to remove it the strut so far have failed. Thanks guys Regards Graeme --
