    Subject: RE: detailed listing of which modifications
    > detailed listing of which modifications are OK for me to discuss I have had extremely good results in my 4x4, with various nefarious snake-oil tricks. I have a log book I have kept for these last 24 years, has everything in it. Mods, mpg, it's all there. I put some fancy spark plugs in there and have documented results. then I put some spark intensifiers on there and documented the results. Then, there are the various oil treatments I have used over the years, and more 3rd-rail stuff I dasn't say anything about. I have purposed deep in my heart to try these on my aircraft before I say a peep about them here.

I fixed mine years ago by taking part of an old foam rubber mattress and cutting an oversize round plug out of it, then cutting four slits for the control cables in the appropriate places and cramming it into the tube right behind the gear. It's still there.

    Kolbers, I was intending to block the end of my boom tube with screening, to keep all my fellow summer aviators to from getting suck inside and snacking on me. Sounds like I should reconsider my material choose. What have you used Rick? Thanks, Nick Cassara Palmer, AK N607AK

    For testing, perhaps use a 5 inch diameter foam disposable plate, taped into position with masking tape, and holes poked in the foam for the cables. Then if it works and makes a useful difference you can come up with a more permanent or more attractive solution. They do make plastic insert plugs for all sizes of "mailing tubes" I think???

    Don't use that insulating foam in a can I think it is called "great stuff". It latches on to the control cables in the fuselage tube so hard that you have to almost break the cables to get them to move again. Ask me how I know this...
