| Subject: | Re: air in lines. |
Tom, I don't know if it's necessary, but before starting a new engine or
one that's sat for a few years I pull the plugs at the nose end of the
oil gallery and pump oil in there. Next I pull one plug from each
cylinder and crank for 15 seconds, wait 30 seconds and crank for 15 secs
.... until I get oil pressure.
Crack the fitting on the carb and run the aux pump until you get fuel.
Set everything for start and have at it.
Now, if you're just worried about air in the sensor lines ..... don't.
The air will make the reading 'spongy', but in short order .... pressure
is pressure. Depending on where you have the fuel pressure sensor
hooked up, the air will dampen pulses from the mechanical pump that will
destroy sensors or gauges over time.

| Subject: | Condition inspection form |
I am beginning my first annual condition inspection in my RV-7A, o-360 with
CSP. I am looking for other options for a condition inspection process or
form that might improve the quality and efficiency of the process. Anyone
have any thoughts/processes to share?
Thanks ,
Chuck Schieffer

Chuck:
Try this: Annual Inspection Checklist Template
It is from the vansairforce.net site that Doug Reeves runs. It is the
template that I have adapted to use for my annual condition
inspections and works quite well.
