Konrad, that makes since to me. My algebra is probably flawed but I
calculated that if I went with a 3-1/4" pulley instead of the 2-3/4" it
would move the alt. .4" closer to the engine but only gain 1/8" of pulley
clearance. That .4" puts me back into the prop governor line.

Chris,
What is your thought in regards to a small clearance bump fiberglassed into the
cowl, versus buying a new expensive alternator?
After all it is not very much additional clearance that you are looking for? Or
perhaps you could stay away from the 3+G Pulls :-)

I have a similar set-up to yours with the 40 amp B&C alternator, the same
engine, and a constant speed prop. I found that my alterantor hit the cowl
on the first flight. I used a slightly shorter (Gates) belt and modified
the tensioning arm. Since the mod I have not had a problem in over 300
hours. 'Hope this helps,

I currently have Vans 35amp alt. With a Gates 7355 belt (36-1/4") on an
O-360 C/S. Somewhere between 3-3.5 g's the pulley makes contact with lower
cowl.
I tried the next size shorter belt 7350 (35-5/8") but it's too tight and
holds the alternator against the Stainless oil line from the governor. I
would buy a B&C L40 if I thought it would give more clearance, but would
rather save the money if it wouldn't fit with the shorter belt.
Does anyone have a B&C L40 on a O-360 with a constant speed prop, and using
a 7350 (35-5/8") (890mm) belt? If I know this combination works I'll order
the B&C.

Charlie, ever notice that the polar regions used to be much warmer?
And northern US was under a ice sheet?
It is dangerous to use what is "normal" during one's lifespan when
global climatic changes happen over thousands/tens of thousands
of years.

| Subject: | Lycoming Mechanical Fuel Pump Available |
--> RV-List message posted by: "DAVID REEL" <dreel@cox.net>
I have a new fuel pump model LW15473 date code 3905 avialable for $200. I'll pay
shipping. ACS list $254.95 plus shipping. Good for engine models: IO-320,
IO-360, AIO-360, HIO-360, IVO-360, IO-540, IGO-540, IO-720. Here's the scoop:
I have an O360 which came from the factory with a low pressure fuel pump, an LW15472,
which was recalled under a mandatory service bulletin. The Cessna dealer,
Dulles Aviation, of Manassas VA, removed this pump & incorrectly recorded
the model number as LW15473. The error was not caught by Cessna who shipped back
a LW15473 which Dulles subsequently installed. The 25-30psi this pump produces
overwhelmed my carburettor's ability to stop the fuel flow & it only took
me four days to diagnose why my new from the factory engine wouldn't run more
than 10 seconds before dying with fuel dripping out the filtered air box because
I suspected everything I had done first. So, I bought a new low pressure
pump from ACS and removed the one I have available. Total run time on it is
about 30 seconds.
What really bugged me though was that Dulles Aviation insisted they had done nothing
wrong even though they agreed they had installed the wrong pump. So, if
any of you have to have this warrantee type of service done by a dealer, beware,
and make sure they get the numbers, which can be hard to read, right.

I thought I was the only one who had been through this fiasco! :-)
Wentworth sent a high pressure pump with my used O-320 engine. Like
Dave's engine, mine would only run a few seconds before fuel would be
pouring out the carb. After considerable time spent troubleshooting, I
disgustedly had the carb in hand and was about to tear it apart when
somebody mentioned "What are the odds you have a high pressure pump?".
The two pumps look identical. I used a Sharpie and wrote the correct
part number on my new low pressure pump. This was one of those deals
that in hindsight I should have figured out in minutes.......but didn't....
I think I still have the several-years-old used high pressure pump in
case anybody wants it for a spare; I have no knowledge of its history.

I helped a friend with his IO-360 replace his mechanical fuel pump. The
mechanial fuel pump was not making enough pressure to keep the engine
running. The new pump came out of a new box with the part number of a high
pressure fuel pump. The engine would not run more than 5 or 10 seconds.
When we checked the new fuel pump, it had the part number of a low pressure
fuel pump but the number on the box it came out of was high pressure.
The moral of this story is "In God we trust. Everything else we check."
This works even if you are a atheists. Verify the part number on the part
is what it should be. Verify everything and trust no one.

There's two types of fiber glassing, vinyl ester and epoxy. If you have
vinyl ester parts, let me know and we'll hook you up with a friendly Glasair
builder in your area, if it's epoxy work then you'll have to troll over to
the Lancair list.

You might try contacting Sam James, he has an excellent video for beginners. I
think it is called Composites 101!!!!! If you have specific question, your welcome
to call or email me. I work with composites every day.

I have a video, I think it is called fiberglass 101. Good video, no
wait, the information on the video is good... The acting leaves much to
be desired.
I think it runs around $20, or I could part with mine if I can find
it... Let me know, -Mike

Does anyone know of a good book on how to do the fiberglass work that we
typically do on RV's? Im tired of guessing at every step and bugging
everybody on this list.

If you have a belt length problem, take your current belt to the local auto
parts store. They will have a gauge to measure the length of your belt. Once
you know that, you can choose another one that is the appropriate amount
shorter.
I found a little pulley scrubbing on my -'6's cowl last summer, took the old
belt in and got a replacement that was a centimeter or two shorter. Made all
the difference in the world.

Well I couldnt help it I had to add this. If It hadnt have been for all the wars
that took so many out, we would be standing on each other. Now we have to
deal with the fact that oour wars dont make many inroads on overpop., keep in
mind that its not fuel, but pop, that keeps the balance.. Burn me at the stake,
I dont give a damn. Charlie Heathco

--> RV-List message posted by: "Steven DiNieri" <capsteve@adelphia.net>
I couldn't get any fuel pressure from the mech pump on one of the 0360-a4m's
I bought brand new. After checking the pump and finding it worked fine we
tore off the accessory housing and found that lycoming installed the wrong
gear. So there was no cam to operate the pump.

The moral of this story is "In God we trust. Everything else we check."
This works even if you are a atheists. Verify the part number on the part
is what it should be. Verify everything and trust no one.
