Re: Need help with EGT problem!

      I had the same problem for a long time with my 582 gray head, B gearbox, turning
      3-bladed GSC ground adjustable prop.  Tried all combinations of jet needle settings,
      jets, etc without satisfaction.  The plugs always looked fine so I watched
      closely and kept on flying. 
      
      Mine was old enough such that I had to tap the exhaust manifold myself for EGT
      probe placement.  Turns out I'd done it with the probes about an inch too far
      from the exhaust outlets where the temps are actually higher than at the recommended
      38mm from the exhaust flange.  I welded the old holes shut and tapped new
      ones and now my temps are comfortably down around 1000 deg @ cruise of 5200
      rpm or so.

Windshield
      
      
      I managed to fit my windshield to my (S7) and get all but one hole for 
      the door post drilled successfully.  The one hole, at the top of the 
      door post made a crack about 2 to 2 1/2 inches long.  I drilled a hole 
      at the beginning of the crack to prevent it from expanding with a 1/8 
      acrylic bit.  My question is: is there an accepted method of patching a 
      crack in acrylic?
      Thanks,
      Jim Gilliatt
