    Gary; you're off probation, but it's going to be a long time till we can actually be friends again ;o) But hey, I see that the books now come in a spiral binding that permits them to lay flat on the bench. Nice touch! I sure wish I had remembered that the books show how to make those firewall shields. I just paid $11.50 for one from Aircraft Spruce, for my tach cable. I've had a giant grommet in the hole in the firewall, but I had to glop it with sealant to hold it in place because the cable is too stiff and kept pulling the grommet out of the hole. It was ugly. A large hole is needed in the firewall to pass the connectors on the end of a tach cable. The 2-piece metal shield is just the thing for the tach cable hole, so that's what I've got now. I did pull out one of the books the other day when I was trying to remember which hole in the turn-and-bank was the vacuum and which was the static. -------- Oscar Zuniga Medford, OR Air Camper NX41CC &quot;Scout&quot; A75 power Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=416218#416218

    Michael; I had the same question about replacing the pushrod tubes. I thought maybe the pushrods could be pulled out through the head and then the old tubes could be hacksawed out in two pieces or something. That would require removal of the rockers though. It would spare the task of pulling the jugs, but wouldn't be a simple task in any case. -------- Oscar Zuniga Medford, OR Air Camper NX41CC &quot;Scout&quot; A75 power Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=416219#416219

    It is not a big deal to change them. Just pull the valve cover, roll that cylinder up on TDC power stroke, push the rocker shaft out,letting the rocker arms come off, then get the push rods out. Pull the rubber gromet/seal back. Now take hold of the tube and start working it round and round. The tube is rolled in place and will come out. If it is stubborn you might have to get rowdy with it. Good thing is you will never need the old tube. -------- Jerry Dotson First flight June 16,2012 Flying in phase 2 Lycoming O-235 C2C Jay Anderson CloudCars prop 76 X 44 do not archive Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=416233#416233
