My fuel vents (two) face forward into the airstream exiting from the cowl.? They
are mounted side by side on the fuselage centerline about 2" behind the firewall.?
A different form of heated vents.? :-)
It is also a convenient location for the brake reservoir static vents that are?in
the same fittings.

Do your fuel vent lines turn forward into the air stream, or are they cut 45*
toward the air stream? Would that make a difference?
My fist flight, HR II, N145HR, Fox Field, Lancaster, Ca, is about two weeks
away. I'm ready now but my Garmin 330 transponder has an AD which requires the
unit be sent to Garmin. Turn around is two long weeks. I discovered the AD
when I inquired about the pitot static sytem check. The AD requires compliance
after the required transponder pitot static system check.
FAR 91.205(a) (civil aircraft) require all the equipment in the plane to be
operable at the time when the airworthiness certificate is issued? That's the
way I understand it.... even AD's? I now about FAR 91.213 approved equip list,
but that's not applicable.

A few months ago people were writing about oil blowby
under their planes.
I have the problem myself. Have an air/oil seperator but
it still blows out.
I have let the oil get down to 9 qts and have now let it
get to 7.5 and will see if it quits blowing out from here
or even down to 6 quarts.
Seems like someone wrote theirs leveled off at 6.
Seems odd that a 12 quart oil system has to blow down to 6
quarts to level off.
Anyone know why this happens? Can it be a cylinder with
bad compression creating the blowby?
I'll check that next though I don't think any of my
cylinders are anywhere near worn.

Ron, I cut mine with a 45 into the wind then drilled them through about 1/4 inch
from the bottom and put a piece of safety wire through the tube. This keeps
the mud-dobbers out...technique only..

My airboat friends around here all run IO-540's and tell me blowby is pretty common,
especially on the 540. Airboat engine guys claim it is the length and depth
of the sump combined with 6 cyllinders banging away creating the pressure.
Most of the airboaters I have met have notches cut into their dipsticks at 6 qts
(as do I). They also abuse their 540's to reassure us flyers of the strength
of the engine. My local airboat lycoming friend showed me several racing airboat
540's brought in for overhaul. One had been run at 3500 RPM for an entire
race with 2 qts remaining due to a cracked oil cooler with no damage. They also
routinely see 500+ CHT's since they don't use baffling and are pushers. I asked
why they liked the 540 so much, he said " limps home on 5 just fine"...
Of course, they are afloat, not airborne, but it's still nice to see...

Jim,
The Garmin 330 transponder AD is: mandatory, covered under warranty, and required
compliance after the biannual pitot static system check.
I went to the Garmin web site and pasted the following service notice located in
their "Service Alert" file.
Today, Garmin is providing a software update (v3.06) for its GTX 330, 330D, 33
and 33D Mode S
transponders. The company has issued mandatory service bulletins, requiring aftermarket
customers and
OEMs to install the v3.06 software on these products. The v3.06 software update
supersedes all previous
updates related to FAA Airworthiness Directive 2004-10-15, which addresses a potential
air-to-air safety issue
between GTX 330/330D-equipped aircraft and those installed with various TAS, TCAD
and TCAS I
equipment.
AD 2004-10-15 lists a potential safety issue in which Garmins Mode S transponders
may intermittently
suppress an air-to-air interrogation from aircraft using certain collision-avoidance
systems. While pilots
flying with respective Garmin equipment will see nearby aircraft via TIS, it is
possible that they may not be
visible to certain traffic-awareness systems in nearby aircraft. Garmin equipped
aircraft remain
appropriately visible within the normal operating range of FAA Terminal and ARTCC
RADAR.
The AD specifies corrective action, including installation of the software update
at a certified repair center.
Garmin encourages its customers to contact their avionics dealer or the companys
field-service engineering
staff with any questions or concerns regarding the AD.
