I should have these. I am working on one also. I am not sure where I can
get them copied for you at.

| Subject: | what does it do? |
Hi,
Need a bit of help! I am trying to get my wiring back in control and
neatened up for my inspection. I found a bunch of wires that were not
connect to anything at one end and apparently are not doing anything.
The only thing that isn't working on the plane is the "tiny teach". Can
anyone tell me what the wire that I have my finger on does? I have
looked in my manuals and cannot find a reference to it. The original
wiring dates back to 97.

Apparently I shot off my finger without thinking it through. I did
finally find that it is the tack wire. However when I hooked up the EIS
it said to use one of the yellow and black wires coming out of the
rectifier rather than the gray wire as you would then be able to do a
dual magi check. Apparently it serves no useful purpose in this
application. Sorry!

The "Tiny Tach" is triggered by a wire wrapped around one of the spark
plug wires between the coil and the plug cap. When you do a mag check,
you get to see the rpm's of one mag, the other you listen to, and see if
it sounds about right.
The thick pink wire in your picture looks like a good candidate for the
pickup application. Does it go to the "Tiny Tach?"

Check that red wire, if it's hot tape it and/or heat-shrink wrap it.

--> Kolb-List message posted by: "John Hauck" <jhauck@elmore.rr.com>
Hi Folks:
One of the best flyins in the south will be held this weekend, 20-22
Oct 2006, on Ronnie Smith's farm in Lucedale, Mississippi.
GPS coordinates are located here, on the left side of the page:
http://www.flysmla.com/home.htm
My mkIII, Miss P'fer (pee fur)(p'fer plane) is in my hanger and her
engine is still in the basement, but we are going anyhow. The old 5th
wheel is hitched up and ready to go in the morning. We are heading
down to enjoy the flyin, airplane or not.
John W is flying in from Texas, James Tripp is flying down from
Wetumpka, Alabama, Steven Green may fly down from Etowah, Tennessee,
Paul Petty and his pappy in law are driving over from Raleigh,
Mississippi, bet John Cooley will be there too.
Hope to see ya'll all tomorrow.

Let me add a note:
The grass strip at Ronnie Smith's farm and South Mississippi Light
Aircraft is 3,000 feet long. So....if you want to fly in in a "real"
airplane, you will be more than welcome. A Twin Otter flies sky
divers out of there, and more than once twins have attended the flyin.

Here are the pictures of the Cabin Heater that I make for the 447 and the 503
engines you other cold weather flyers will be more comfortable in the cold
flying weather with this setup and this is worth a bunch more than you just
paid for it
here I am getting heat in the cockpit with the valve closed
in this picture I am letting the heat escape to the atmosphere, see the
cable attachment point to control the system and the valve open
heres the other end of that same cable in the cockpit in a handy place
skeet tube going to where you want the heat
I leave this system on all year and it doesn't affect engine temps in hot
weather

if you make the same heater system idea I make you can angle the heater
output tubes to miss the carbs its not much of a problem as you can fit it to your
application
I have posted PicS on the Photo share and they should be coming soon

Yes it does. I checked it today and every thing seems ok, but I replaced
the ground wire to see if that was the problem.
