| Subject: | Gates "Barricade" fuel hose |
I just read about this hose in my old British car catalog .As I am getting
some slight gas fumes in the cockpit when I open the door of my Kitfox,
this sounds like a good replacement for the fuel hose that I have been usin
g
AND if I end up using Ethanol, It can handle that.

| Subject: | warp drive tracking |
Can someone tell me what is the tracking tolerance on a 3 blades warp drive?
I have 1/4 ''difference one one blade on mine. The 2 other blades are
tracking exactly the same and my pitch is set perfectly similar on each 3
blades.
Thanks

What is blade tracking and what is the approved tracking tolerance?
1/2 an inch is acceptable. Make sure the blades are all at the same pitch before
checking the tracking.
When rotating, the tip of each propeller blade moves in a circle. This circle defines
a plane of rotation. If each blade were tracking perfectly, the planes
traced by the blade tips would be parallel. Due to several factors, the planes
of rotation may not be parallel.

I flew behind a Warp Drive propeller. A half inch seems like a bit much
to me. I always got a little excited when it got close to an eighth inch.
I checked my Warp documents and they mentioned nothing about tracking, so
checked on line. I found one site that recommended 1/8" max. and another
that mentioned 1/16" +or-, which are identical recommendations. I do know
this, though, with a very slow moving ceiling fan, a half inch out of track
will set up a considerable wobble.
