Hello Travis,
To check for prop diameter and run out you could use something such as a
step ladder, a short piece of stiff wire and some Vice-Grips. Stand the
ladder close to but just far enough away from the prop to avoid accidental
contact. Clamp the wire to the ladder or what have you so that it just
clears the blade tips Rotate each prop blade to the wire and measure, it
will turn easier with the top plugs removed (less chance of moving the
airframe)
Jim in Kelowna The wiring is done and tested, No Smoke devils escaped :-)

I think what you are really talking about is "track" The tips of the blades
want to be in the same plane; no wobble. To check this, remove a plug from
each cylinder so the prop is easy to rotate. Then use a chair or some other
item as fixed point. Check to see if the tips are the same location when you
rotate them. That they miss your fixed point by the same amount. They can be
as much as 1/8" difference from your fixed point. 1/16" is better. If the
tips don't follow each other (track) the prop will vibrate regardless of
balance.

The way I check TRACKING is to use a reference point off the aircraft
itself. That way I don't need to pull spark plugs or anything or worry about
the chair or whatever moving to screw up my fixed reference point. In the
case of my slider canopy RV-3, I use a steel measuring tape from the
backside of the windshield to the prop tip. Start with the prop vertical.
Rotate 180 degrees and do again. Very simple, accurate and done in minutes.
Worked well on my old Ercoupe, too. YMMV... if you have a tip up canopy. <g>

--> RV-List message posted by: Gary Zilik <zilik@excelgeo.com>
On the old super slow build kits I open up the hole in the skin to 1"
and install the grommet in the 6101 (7101 in your case). This skin is
thinner and easier to work on since it is on the outside. I could never
imagine installing two grommets here. I would shy away from a bulkhead
fitting as it introduces two more failure points.

| Subject: | Re: Location of Fuel Flow Transducer |
--> RV-List message posted by: Gary Zilik <zilik@excelgeo.com>
Interesting topic here. I installed my transducer between the mechanical
pump and the carb. My reasoning was; that's where the manufacturer of my
fuel flow wanted it and I also thought that the pulsing from the
mechanical pump would negate all the problems associated with running
the boost pump. Well, guess what, my fuel flow still goes up with the
boost pump on. I only use my boost pump for takeoff and landings, a
small percentage of flying time so it is not an issue. My totalizer is
consistently less than 1% different than actual used.
IMHO the dampener is not warranted. It adds WEIGHT and more complexity
in a simple system.

Hi:
I have The EIS unit, and when checking the Tach-RPM, the figures are all
out. Much less than it should be.
Could some one, familiar with this Engine monitor, guide me thru the steps
to re-program this? Cannot find on the manual, what you do to change or add
a number..
Thanks for the help

Hold the 2 RIGHT buttons down for 10 seconds (until screen changes).
Scroll through the selections until you see the RPM. I beleive the values
are 1,2,3,4. Select the appropriate one for your engine.

Found a chart service that includes all VFR sectionals and IFR Enroute colored
charts and Approach Plates in spiral bound books at a very fair price.
Check out www.airchart.com
After years of using Jeppesen IFR charts and buying individual VFR sectionals when
needed for local/cross-country flight, this service appears to be a real bargain.
Also, no more folding/un-folding sectionals in our smaller cockpits.
ALL the charts are one binder!
I'm not associated with this service or company in any way. Just thought others
may find the service as valuable as I believe it to be.

I talked to Greg but I think you will find the tach settings on
page 20 of the instructions as they have several options. They are
helpful as I had some other problems that they took care of
expeditiously.

ALL the charts are one binder!
I'm on my second year using their
VFR Atlas. Really nice having all the charts
for the entire east half of the US - I never have
to worry about not having the right chart, or
not being up to date. However, the rather large
spiral bound atlas is very difficult to
use in a small cockpit. I've stripped the
plastic spiral binder off, and punched regular
three-hole format holes and used three rings to
hold it together. That allows you to remove just
the pages you need and have them on your
kneepad, and the rest of the book in the back in case you need
them but don't have to fight with them all the time.
I've inquired with the company about
offering a three-hole format, but they are
not considering it at this time, unfortunately.
Still a great service, although annoying to have to
strip and punch my own holes to make it
useable in the plane.

Look inside nearly any airshow airplane and you will see Howie Keefe's
aircharts. They are great for old eyes and small cockpits.
They come in both sectional 2 books for the country, and WACs 1 book for the
country. I flew on the WACs for the last several years, but my bifocals
mandated the change to the Sectional books this year. I use the IFR system
as well. Highly recommended.

Ditto that! I've been using both for several years and will never go back
to individual sectionals or charts (IFR & VFR). Hopefully this good press
will give them some more coverage and more people will discover these. They
are really a nice addition. Unlike some people, I actually like the spiral
binding because I can just flip to the page I need and lay the whole book up
on the dash when it's not in my lap. Haven't yet purchased their
sectionals, I've been using the WAC version, but the sectionals will be my
next purchase!
Just my 2 cents.
Cheers,
Stein Bruch
