      Paul,
      
      In reading these pages in ACS, I had always assumed that the Zinc Chromate 
      primer offered was a solvent based primer as it is available in spray cans 
      and the Epoxy primer was of a different formulation for it's corrosion 
      resistance.

| Subject:  | How to secure threaded EGT probes? | 
      
      
      Ok guys, nobody seems to know the answer to this...at least nobody I have asked
      yet.  That is why I am asking it here which is probably where I should have started.
      
      I have the Grand Rapids EIS and have the 4 EGT probes installed (threaded type
      no the band-clamp type for 912/914).  The problem is they keep loosening up. 
      I have them safety wired in so they will not come out completely but I would like
      to secure them so the don't loosen.  I assume the loosening is partially due
      to vibration and heat expansion of the pipes/probes during running.  
      
      I have thought about threadlocker (I have found one that will hold up to 2200 degrees
      F but it is $$$$ for a tiny bottle).  GRT doesn't have a specific torque
      setting they know that will prevent loosening.  What have you guys done?  Or
      does anyone have any ideas?

      I have a printed copy and one on my PDA and of course one here...  they all
      get well used.  Some guys just won't buy one until they see what's in it.
      It is the basis for all aircraft maintenance and it goes into some depth as
      to why, not just do it this way.

      Hello Everyone,
      
      My name is Bryan Smith and I am with a company called BrightLine Bags.  I do not want to offend anybody by posting on this list, so I apologize in advance if I have.  I am a student pilot as well.  I posted on the Commander list with the help of a Commander owner and received wonderful response from quite a  few Commander owners.  We make a brand new type of Pilot Flight Bag.  It is like nothing you have seen or used before.  If you use a flight bag, I am quite certain that if you go to our website at www.brightlinebags.com and click on the demo video, you will be impressed.  Thank you everyone for this forum.  We will be at the AOPA conterence in November if anybody is going.  Please stop by and say hi.  If you have any questions, you can contact me directly at bryan@brightlinebags.com.  Thanks again.

      The last time I saw two part epoxy zinc chromate was a while ago...  I would
      try one of the suppliers for certified aircraft.  Aviall, Wicks and Leavens
      in Canada come to mind.

      Noel, Have you been successful obtaining Zinc Chromate based paint or primer
      in the
      last few years?
      
      I ran out and went searching for some and paint brands such as DeRusto and
      Rustoleum
      made no claim of containing it (they used to) so I took the extra effort to
      get the
      MSDS for each of the products that claimed corrosion protection and of the 5
      I looked
      up, two had zinc phosphate but none had Zinc Chromate in them. I haven't
      researched
      this but it is likely that somebody found that it was detrimental to the
      quality of
      life of laboratory mice or was a runner up in the global warming debacle.
      
      An A&P friend of mine gave me 2 quarts of "Boeing Green" as he called it
      that were at
      least 15 years old. I put the two cans in a Lowes paint shaker for 8 minutes
      and have
      been using it.
      
      I wonder if these new blends with zinc phosphate will work as well.
      Certainly seems
      like some research into this could be useful.

      You need to find -1A/2B.  It is also available for perusing in print form,
      although I'm not sure what the cost is.  I got mine when I was in school
      studying aircraft maintenance and I'll certainolly echoLynns thoughts that
      it is a great basis to have in the print form. 
      Well worth the $$ even if it is over $100 now which I doubt.

      That should give you what you need. (PDF format)
      
      I always called the circular AC43 but it is AC43.13-1b/2a
      
      Looking things up in the book is generally faster even with the inks in the

      I would just keep them safety wired. Some day they will need replacing

      Try AC 43.13-1b pp. 7-24.
      
      You may have to drill a hole through two adjacent flats on the nut to put
      the wire through.

      Subject: Kitfox-List: How to secure threaded EGT probes?
      
      
      Ok guys, nobody seems to know the answer to this...at least nobody I have
      asked yet.  That is why I am asking it here which is probably where I should
      have started.
      
      I have the Grand Rapids EIS and have the 4 EGT probes installed (threaded
      type no the band-clamp type for 912/914).  The problem is they keep
      loosening up.  I have them safety wired in so they will not come out
      completely but I would like to secure them so the don't loosen.  I assume
      the loosening is partially due to vibration and heat expansion of the
      pipes/probes during running.  
      
      I have thought about threadlocker (I have found one that will hold up to
      2200 degrees F but it is $$$$ for a tiny bottle).  GRT doesn't have a
      specific torque setting they know that will prevent loosening.  What have
      you guys done?  Or does anyone have any ideas?

      You have a lot more expertise than I do, but I think that if you're going to paint
      over the primer, in some circumstances the Zinc Chromate would be better for one
      thing
      it is flat and has a better tooth. The solvent base must be considered for the
      type of
      stuff you're going to apply to it. I'd sure check with PolyFiber if that's going
      on
      over it. I'm pretty certain that the Epoxy you speak of is compatible with Poly
      Fiber,
      but not being certain, I'd check with them first before buying.
      
      After doing some research, it turns out Boeing has adopted a new anti-corrosion
      paint
      that has less environmental risk. I found the part number for it, but not the content
      yet. Found one reference that said it was pricey in small quantities.

      Could be. Or from around cowling/firewall seal. Get a CO detector if you do
      n't have one already. Cheap insurance.
