This morning I drained the oil. Opened the oil pressure relief valve, looked clean, but swabbed it 6 times with a q-tip dipped in acetone to be sure. Spring was OK. Opened the oil screen...clean as it could be... Changed oil filter...cut open old filter, put the filter material in acetone and washed it out real good...used a magnet to see if there was any material in the bottom of the bucket...came up perfectly clean..absolutely nothing. Visual inspection of the filter material showed nothing...no little sparkles or any foreign material. Ran the engine after the oil change....pressure came up immediately and ran about 62psi at 900rpm, and came up to 80psi at 1700 rpm...oil was at ambient temp, around 75-deg F. All seems OK. Will fly tomorrow and get altitude and stay within gliding range of the airport and fly for an hour and see what happens. I hope there was some small bit of junk on the ball in the pressure relief valve that I did not see. My oil pump gear has the last AD per Carter who did the overhaul of the engine, that now as 513-hours on it. Never has used oil, always had changes of Aeroshall 15-50 every 4 months...never missed a change of oil or filter. Will post results.

It is always best to be careful. Ron - Can your email program skip large messages? In Thunderbird on my laptop, it fetches the first part of the text and then displays a message allowing the rest of to be downloaded or ignored.

I have had several in the last few days that tied up my dialup system FOR OVER AN HOUR. The sender was advertising some things he wanted to sell. That's fine, but how about reduceing the size (mb) to mere kb ... the photo will still be just fine; we don't need ultra pixel fidelity. ----- Original Message ----- From: Ron Lee To: rv-list@matronics.com Sent: Friday, August 14, 2009 4:13 PM Subject: RV-List: Large attachments I just had a file come through that had an attachment or embedded picture that was over 3 Meg in size.

There was some discussion a while back regarding the Standard engine vibration mounts verses the Aerobatic style. I happen to have a set of each and thought others might be interested in seeing what the physical differences actually are. You can see from the pictures, that one half is exactly the same. It is very hard and appears to have a "washer" of some sort molded into the rubber about halfway. The rubber is very hard. It carries the part number "VIP50901-78". The other side, however, is different between the two types. On the Aerobatic style, the other side is simply just another one of the first side. It has the washer inside and appears to carry the exact same part number as a matter of fact (VIP50901-78). On the Standard mounts, however, the other mount is signifificantly different and carries a different part number (VIP50900-71). As you can see from the picture, it is taller by about 25%, it doesn't have the internal washer, and the rubber seems to be a lot softer. On the softness of the rubber, it might just be that it feels that way because there is more of it without any objects molded into it. But I think it does feel a little softer. The long bushing is also a bit longer on the Standard version. What does it all really mean? I don't know, but the aerobatic ones seem more manly, so that's what I'm going to go with... ;-) And, furthermore, I like my engines mounted like I like breasts on woman - firm, baby, FIRM! :-) Matt Dralle RV-8 #82880 N998RV http://www.mykitlog.com/dralle ________________________________ Message 9 _____________________________________ Time: 08:54:58 PM PST US From: Mark Grieve Subject: Re: RV-List: Large attachments The silly thing is that Windows XP and Vista make it so easy to avoid this sort of thing. If you are viewing a picture and then right click and then send, the program will offer to resize the picture. I work at an ISP and big attachments clogging up dialup mail accounts is our most common help desk problem.

I sent 3 photos totaling 1.2 (one-point-two) Mb offing to sell an RV-8 Cowl at a significant discount. I assumed I was doing a service to some -8 builder on a budget (not a money making venture). I could have slimmed down the images even further but I wanted to make sure the prospective buyer was able to see detail. Sorry it's been about 16 years since I was dial up.
