Subject: | Contributions Down By 21%... |
Dear Listers,
As of today, contributions to the Matronics List Fund Raiser are lagging behind
last year at this time by 21%. I have a fund raiser each year simply to cover
my operating costs for the Lists. I *do not* accept any advertising income
to support the Lists and rely solely on the contributions of members to keep the
expenses paid.
I run all of my own servers and they are housed here locally, and the Internet
connection is a commercial-grade, T1 connection with public address space. I
also maintain a full backup system that does nightly backups of all List-related
data so that in the event of a server crash or worse, all of the Lists and
the many years of List archive data could be restored onto a new server in a matter
of hours.
All of this costs a fair amount of money, not to mention a significant amount of
my personal time as well. I have a Fund Raiser each year to cover these costs
and I ask that members that feel they receive a benefit from my investments,
make a modest contribution each year to support the continued operation and
upgrade of these services.
If you enjoy the Lists, please make a contribution today. I also offer some incentive
gifts for larger contribution levels. At the Contribution Web Wite, you
can use a credit card, Paypal, or personal check to show your support for the
continuation of these services:

No, but I'm wondering why you would want to? My thought is that it would not do
anything for you that the choke wouldn't do so what am I missing

Another Lightning took to the skies on wednesday 11, taking off at Chicago
O`Hare airport to fly nonstop all the way to Frankfurt Rhein Main A/P.
Not on its own wings, though, but in a crate aboard a MD11 Freighter of Lu
fthansa Cargo. It arrived safely , sits now in front of my garage in Linde
n near Giessen and waits to be assembled in the spare time I can find in
the months( or years) to come.
My name is Gerd (pronounced Garret) Nowack , age 54 and I have been an act
ive pilot, private and professional, since 1976.
So here are my greetings from Germany as a new member of the Lightning lis
t!
Gerd

Subject: | Re: Primer with Bing Carburetor |
On a list in another place the primer has been mentioned as being used
successfully. I suggest you surf jabiruengines at Yahoo groups.
The way I see it the advantage of the primer is that one can add the
amount of fuel to richen the start to meet the conditions, whereas the
'starting carburettor' is fixed in it's operation from a day to day
basis.
I have successfully started a dead Jabiru by squirting fuel through the
carburettor simulating a primer when everything else had checked out and
the engine refused to start. This was middle of UK winter when overnight
temps had been around 2 degrees C.
This winter as soon as the 'hard to start days' arrive I shall be
experimenting with enlarging the whole in the starting carburettor
restrictor. To date whenever I've had problems starting my 2200 Jabiru I
feel the mixture wasn't rich enough.
My 3300 Jabiru starts in all conditions I've yet to try it in even
turning over very slowly, different age engine by about 8 years.
If the enlarging of the starting carb restriction doesn't work I'm
seriously considering a primer.
Like a number of issues associated with Jabiru engines, there's engines
and there's engines.......
If I were building again I think I'd add the primer option from the
start.
Regards, Clive
