| Subject: | Re: 582 starter not engaging. |
Good morning all.
Well, I have some good news after looking the situation over. I tried another
battery, but it still would not engage. So we tore the cowling off to see what
it was doing. I had someone crank it over, while I looked at it from underneath.
The mounting bolts were fine, so I new that was not the problem. I looked
to me, and forgive me if I use the wrong terms here, like the gear would spin
forward and latch on to the flywheel, but the pack (pressure plate?) would
not slide forward.
There was a lot of old thick lubrication on it. I cleaned it a little, then sprayed
it good with some thin lubricant.
Out of 20 tries after that, it failed to engage just 2 times. So it now seems
to engage 9 out of 10 times. That is a lot better than 0 out of 10 times. :)
I will keep an eye on it, but I think that was the whole issue.
Thank you all for all your help and information.
Andrew

All,
Anybody remember a requirement for increasing the size of
the horizontal stab struts from 10-32 to 1/4-28? Bob did it for my
aircraft based on ? but I can't find a reference in the SBs or SLs.
It might be a series I - III issue that Bob translated to the IV.
(I'm asking for another IV owner who has the small struts.)
