    I lost one of the 8 nuts on my exhaust pipes. Can anyone tell me the size of that nut (metric? SAE?) and a source for the nuts?

    Subject: Re: coolant pump leak
    I agree with Roger and the insight he gave me about replacing this seal.. -My motor has-sat around awhile during the building process, during-t he first through third start of older motor that had most items were replac ed except the water pump seal (not for the weak of heart to replace). Three weeks-of sitting around after-last run-up produced-a drop of water from the weep hole and then water began to appeared daily at the water pum p.-After talking with two Rotax facilities they said that it was OK! Star t it run it and recheck for leakage that is permissible. Whats permissible a couple of drops per day when cold and not in use ?????? Go figure, I prob able did not need to replace the seal if I could accept a small leakage. I removed the seal from the front side (at the water pump) without removing f rom the airframe-and yes I made small disposable tools and spent two days carefully removing /destroying the old seal. The seal is unlike any normal-seal you will encounter. I will stop here and say you do not need impeller tool rmoval tool ( heat gun and vise grips will do) but you need the install tool of $74.00. Seal is $88.00 and water pump gasket $12.00. Go d help you if you need to remove everything according to the Rotax Manual $ $$$.=0AGeorge=0ASport Model(7+)- Rotax 914- almost, but not yet!=0Ado not a rchive =0A=0A=0A=0A=0A________________________________=0AFrom: Roger Lee <s sadiver1@yahoo.com>=0ATo: rotaxengines-list@matronics.com=0ASent: Mon, Marc h 1, 2010 6:25:03 AM=0ASubject: RotaxEngines-List: Re: coolant pump leak=0A m>=0A=0AIf your engine has been sitting quite a while and cold then run the engine up to operating temperature and then take a look.=0A=0A--------=0AR oger Lee=0ATucson, Az.=0ALight Sport Repairman - Maintenance Rated=0ARotax Repair Center=0A520-574-1080=0A=0A=0A=0A=0ARead this topic online here:=0A =0Ahttp://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=288729#288729=0A=0A=0A=0A ====================

    Hi Tommy, It is an M8 locknut. It is a different type of locknut and meant for those high temps. I don't know where locally you might pick one up. Best bet is CPS, Lockwood or leading edge. -------- Roger Lee Tucson, Az.
