| Subject: | Idle mixture screw on MA-4-5 |
--> RV-List message posted by: Mark E Navratil <czechsix@juno.com>
Guys, I'm getting almost no RPM rise when I pull the mixture to idle
cutoff at shutdown, and occasionally get some hesitation when I apply
full throttle for a go-around. Which probably means my idle mixture
setting is too lean. I don't have a manual for the MA-4-5 carb on my
O-360 so I'm wondering if anybody remembers which way I turn the screw to
make it richer?
Thanks,

Listers,
Anybody out there added more fuel capacity to an RV-7 or RV-8 leading
edge? I'm picking up an RV-7 wing & Tail kit that already has the tanks
completed, but want additional fuel in the leading edge. Has anybody
done this? If so, I'd be interested in pictures of what you did....

Turn the screw out (counter clockwise) to enrich.

My suggestion is try to align both ailerons, I know it was very difficult
for me to do, when I was finishing my Rv6a,,,It took a lot of time and trial
and error, but I was able top algin both ailerons, with the flaps..I do not know
if you meant that one both are align but one side, is different that
the other? how can that be, if you built according to plans?
I did have to add a shimm on one side,to match with the flaps, although
it was only about 1/8. I could have left it that way, but you know...is our
rv....
Just my nickel worth

Ralf,
I've seen their Web site. What I was looking for was a modification of
the outboard leading edge skins to hold another 10-20 Gals per side....

I've done a leading edge tank mod to mine; haven't flown yet. I'll try
to send pics if you want. You're welcome to call tomorrow if you want &
I'll describe what I did.

What oil lines would penetrate the firewall? The only one I could think =
of would be oil pressure and I would recommend using an electric oil =
pressure gauge instead. Yes I mean fuel lines. My fuel supply line =
transitions from aluminum to flex at a bulkhead fitting in the firewall.
