    :-) Dear Listers, If you received this particular Matronics List Email message, its because you haven't yet made a Contribution to support your Lists! Implemented for the first time last year, the Matronics system selectively sends out the Contribution messages to those that forgot to whip out the 'ol credit card this year to support the continued operation and upgrade of the Matronics Email Lists! Don't you wish PBS worked that way? :-) You heard that right. Once you make your Contribution, these support requests messages during November will suddenly stop coming to your personal email inbox! I wanted to implement something like this for a number of years, but it was always such a daunting task to modify the back-end List processing code, that I just kept putting it off. Finally last year, I just decided to bite the bullet and put the code-pounding time it to make it work. A few days later, bam! A working system! I really do appreciate each and every one of your individual Contributions to support the Lists. It is your support that enables me to upgrade the hardware and software that are required to run a List Site like this. It also goes to pay for the commercial-grade Internet connection and to pay the rather huge electric bill to keep the computer gear running and the air conditioner powered up. I run ALL of the Matronics Email List and Forums sites here locally which allows me to control and monitor every aspect of the system for the utmost in reliably and performance. Your personal Contribution matters because when combined with other Listers such as yourself, it pays the bills to keep this site up and running. I accept exactly ZERO advertising dollars for the Matronics Lists sites. I can't stand the pop-up ads and all other commercialism that is so prevalent on the Internet these days and I particularly don't want to have it on my Email List site. If you appreciate the ad-free, grass-roots, down-home feel of the Matronics Email Lists, please make a Contribution to keep it that way!! http://www.matronics.com/contribution Thank you!

These situations include if someone replies to one of the messages, or when using the List Browse feature, or when accessing List message via the Forum.

    From: "jb92563" <jb92563@yahoo.com>
    I have a Cuyuna ul II-02 2 cycle engine muffler that I would like to paint since it looks ugly in its natural "Rust" color(No Coating at all). What sort of paint can I use that will stand up to 2 cycle temps? I have heard of a heat proof silver paint, but I have no idea how it stands up to 1400 degrees F. Suggestions, comments, ideas? -------- Ray Riverside County, CA Do Not Archive Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=144827#144827

    Subject: Re: Xtra Information
    Thanks all for the comments! Even though I have a lot of GA time, I will definitely be trailering my plane to a longer strip until I can fly it expertly. My take away from all your comments is that I've got plenty of length for ground roll. So, if I can do something about those pesky trees. I actually found a place where I won't have any approach or departure obstacles and 700' and oriented correctly for winds. I'll just have to do some dirtwork. No problem. So, I'm in the market for an Xtra 912 or 912S or no engine at all. My though is that the 912S isn't much more expensive than the 912 and you get 20hp more. Vic - you really ought to keep your plane at least until you have 40hrs on it. Then if you still want to sell, shoot me a note. Thanks, Chuck

    Subject: Re: Xtra Information
    Chuck, I just want to comment on the Ivo in flight adjustable prop. It depends on the engine you use. For the two strokes, according to Rotax documents, the prop has to be adjusted so that the engine reaches full RPM in level flight. If you set the prop to do that your engine will perform properly. If you don't, it it will exhibit either high EGT when operated with too little pitch, or high CHT if operated with too much pitch. Generally, when thinking of controllable pitch, it's assumed the prop is set for proper climb performance and then pitch is increased for better cruise performance. As I found out the hard way when setting up a new Warp Drive prop on a 582, just 2 degrees of pitch separate an engine that performs properly from one that will not rev past 4500 RPM. I didn't fly it much, just enough to get it around the pattern and back on the ground, and it was a very low pattern at that, but I didn't see any tendency for the engine to pick up RPM during the brief time I was in level flight. Perhaps the response of the engine would be different if it were started at the peak of the power curve and pitch was increased from there, I can't say, but given the reports of others on this list, and my own experience setting up props, I would say you would have a range of 400 to 600 RPM to adjust the prop and still keep the engine within Rotax recommended operating parameters. My other feelings about Ivo's are well documented here. I didn't mount the medium Ivo that came with my HKS powered trike because of the torque schedule and flimsy mounting of this prop on this engine. In brief, the HKS does not have the drive lugs required by this prop so power would have been transferred through six 8mm screws with no shank, which essentially means it would be mounted by the metal between the thread valleys of the screws, which is less than 1/4". Vic, I don't know your situation, but you may be suffering from winter time blues and your attitude will change with sunny skies and warm temps. If that's the case, just pretend you don't own a plane for the winter and get a marvelous surprise in the spring. :-) If, on the other hand you are in financial or medical distress, do what you have to, that's life these days. I think I can speak for everyone here that whatever you decide you will be in our thoughts as we all wish you better days.
