Hi Ronko,
What model Pulsar are you flying? I'm building a Pulsar 3. Is the nose gear mod
a fit for this particular model? Can you provide photos of your nose gear section
of your aircraft. I'm still a long way from finishing but never hurts to
modify to a stronger nose gear. All about safety. Thanks,
Frank

| Subject: | Rotax 912S: Coolant leak coming from Cyl #1 jug |
Heh Guys,
Coming along slowly on my Pulsar 3 build. It has a new Rotax 912S (1997) installed.
Has less than 3-5 hours total. The engine has all the fluids in it and
I put it in the preservation state leaving the coolant in and full. It has Evans
coolant in it. Funny thing is that yesterday I noticed a couple of drops
of coolant on the floor below the #1 cylinder jug. Looking underneath I can see
that the leak may be coming from the left side of the #1 cyl jug. I get a drop
about once every couple of days. Miniscule to say the least, but a leak is
a leak. Haven't attempted anything yet. Any ideas? Thanks for your help.

Hi Frank,
I fly an AD Series 2 with Skystar's Series 3 firewall forward and can tell
you the nosegear that came with your kit is totally different than the ones
they've been talking about that have had various failures and revisions. I
have not heard of the Series 3 nosegear failing in any way. The nosegear and
fork were engineered somewhat beefier than its predecessors.
Jim

I have finished and did fly the Pulsar III. It is now in Mesa Arizona at a new
home. Let me say that the airplane is rock solid in the air. I have videos of
all my test flights on YouTube, Just search Pulsar III test flights. Anyway, the
nose gear on the Pulsar III is the latest and very strong gear. I did make
a mod however and it involves changing the way the pivot strut is mounted. Instead
of the stainless firewall I replaced it with a .035 piece of aluminum. I
did not like the way the attachment of the gear was only 4 points which were the
fiberglass perimeter of the fuselage. I anchored not only the four called for
BUT also 3 more attach points vertical on the firewall. I then bolted the fire
way around the circumference of the fuselage. This distributed the forces
all around the fuselage instead of just 4 points. If you like I have a myriad
of picks on the installation. Just a point to consider. Cheers, Larry N853LW J250
