    I have a 4-1200 also on which I used Cub Yellow PolyTone. Some kind of bug left green spots all over it that went right down to the fabric. I repainted w/ Aerothane and a year later it looked the same. After dinging up the fuselage in an "unscheduled landing" I recovered w/ Stewart's Cub Yellow and put it in the same environment and it is still clean. Dan can tell you how to make repairs and he will be very happy to talk to you. Tell him I sent you.

    From: "Ken Potter" <kjpotter@sympatico.ca>
    Wild; THANK YOU for your post. In preparation for test running and first flight in the spring I have recently filled my 582 with coolant. After seeing your post I checked my vent fitting and....... it was not drilled either. My filling cap unit was supplied to the previous owner by Denny in 1989 ( Model II, Ser. 483). I wonder how many others are out there that are not venting properly, or how many other have had overheat problems without knowing why. This probably only applies to Model I and II but my recommendation is... check that the fitting is indeed drilled out. Thanks again for you observation.

    Subject: coolant from vent hole behind water pump housing?
    Not sure about the rotax as I fly behind a Subaru but on a Chevy that would mean it is time to change the entire water pump not just a seal _____ From: owner-kitfox-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-kitfox-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Kitfox George Sent: Saturday, February 13, 2010 11:18 AM Subject: Kitfox-List: coolant from vent hole behind water pump housing? There is a small vent hole in the rear casting housing that bolts to the motor behind water pump that is seeping a little coolant. This motor has sat around for a while. Could someone describe what I'm in for and how and what I need to replace the seal. I believe by looking at the parts book that it is called a rotary seal part number 850-945.
