Russ K, I use 16 amp AGM or SLA batteries to fire up my 912ULS. Also keep
the battery on a small solar charger/regulator. Last year the MKIII sat in
the hanger for more than a 4 month period. Fired right up when I got back
home from my land trip. I'd have to go over to the airstrip to find out
what make and model I am using now.

On the way to Oshkosh 2003, the long way from Alabama.
John Williamson took this photo as we flew from Sault Saint Marie, MI, to
Iron Mountain, MI, then south to Oshkosh.

As I recall, someone mentioned a lightweight battery that worked as well as those
12-pound ones.
Anyone have that info?

Russ K/Kolbers:
I understand the "new age" batteries are lighter than AGM and SLA batteries,
but the price difference is not worth the weight savings to me.
My MKIII started flying with lead acid batteries from Wal-Mart. Made my
first flight to Alaska with one in 1994. Was glad to get the SLA and AGM
batteries that work better and do not have the acid hazard to contend with.
Sulfuric acid will eat through paint, dope, epoxy chromate primer, aluminum
and 4130 steel. My MKIII knows.
Kolbs don't have a problem carrying a little extra weight. If I was going
to be building a Part 103 ultralight to make the 254 lb weight limit, I'd go
with the lithium ion battery or a pull starter.
My opinion only.

group,
I was cleaning my 447 air filter last night with the K&N cleaner
which is pretty strong. Instructions say to spray and leave it on for ten
minutes and rinse it off. Well I went to bed and forgot about it. It cleaned
up good and looks fine, but i am concerned the cotton may come apart. anyone
ever leave the cleaner on that long? Im thinking about ordering a new one
from leaf!

Ed D/Kolbers:
I think the instructions are probably insuring you leave the cleaner on for
a minimum of 10 minutes. If it was mine, I'd rinse it off, dry it out, oil
it up, and use it. Check it periodically to insure its integrity.
I bought a bottle of that spray cleaner 30 years ago. Was expensive. Only
one I ever bought. Since then I have used gasoline to clean the filters,
air dry, re-oil, and go fly.
Not recommending anyone do as I do, but it works for me.
