From: "Thom Riddle" Ron, Though I've never had any problem getting the two carb throttle and enricher cables to operate simultaneously, it does take patience and some perseverance to get it just right on some airplanes. Most folks use commercially available cable splitters but I owned a Rans S6S that had a home made one that I was able to get to work perfectly well. Zenith has a really good way to avoid the cable splitter entirely. The cockpit throttle controls directly operate a pivot arm mechanism mounted on the engine side of the firewall. The arms on the pivot mechanism are rigidly interconnected to each other and move the carb throttle arms via short straight cables. Much simpler and less tortuous than long sheathed cables that can start to bind after many hours years of service. -------- Thom Riddle Buffalo, NY (9G0) Kolb Slingshot SS-021 Jabiru 2200A #1574 Tennessee Prop 64x32 Truth is what stands the test of experience. - Albert Einstein Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=341819#341819 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other Matronics Email List Services ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Post A New Message rotaxengines-list@matronics.com UN/SUBSCRIBE http://www.matronics.com/subscription List FAQ http://www.matronics.com/FAQ/RotaxEngines-List.htm Web Forum Interface To Lists http://forums.matronics.com Matronics List Wiki http://wiki.matronics.com Full Archive Search Engine http://www.matronics.com/search 7-Day List Browse http://www.matronics.com/browse/rotaxengines-list Browse Digests http://www.matronics.com/digest/rotaxengines-list Browse Other Lists http://www.matronics.com/browse Live Online Chat! http://www.matronics.com/chat Archive Downloading http://www.matronics.com/archives Photo Share http://www.matronics.com/photoshare Other Email Lists http://www.matronics.com/emaillists Contributions http://www.matronics.com/contribution ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- These Email List Services are sponsored solely by Matronics and through the generous Contributions of its members.
