New 912ul. Fuel tends to leak from Vent tube and filter. Valve does not appear
to leak when actuated by light finger pressure. Have checked float arms adjusted
lever to valve slightly but still leaks.

John,
This has been a mystery to me and it is a problem that is frequently
discussed. The only time I experienced it was when I rebuilt my carburetors
and put In the new float needles among the other things. I was told that
there are two different needles, one for the bouncier ULS - at least on
start-up and shut down - and one for the 912 UL. I went back to the old
needles and no further problems. Others have suggested out of balance
carburetors - don't know about that one. My new Model IV has a 1994 engine
and there are no such issues which makes me think it just might be the float
needles. Sorry for just opinions and nothing really helpful.
Lowell

| Subject: | Need FWF less engine for KFII |
Hey guys just purchased a model 2 sans engine and everything FWF with the exception
of the boot cowl and cowl. I purchased a 582 with E Box and elec start but
I need all the accessories to get her going! I posted a while back on barnstormers
and got quite a response but came up empty handed with a mount that would
fit??? Any how the budget is in check now and time to get serious! If you
folks have any thing that I might need or know somebody who does please let
me know! I will need everything including radiator as the one that came with
the engine won't fit any where on the fox! Any help would be great!

The only thing I have that might help is an exhaust system for the 582 that
was intended for the Model IV I just finished. I don't know much about what
fits what, but it is available.
