(vanremog@aol.com) ________________________________ Message 1 _____________________________________ Time: 05:44:08 PM PST US From: Brian Huffaker Subject: RV-List: Exhaust hung, and a starter ring gear question. Got the exhaust system attached. It went together very easy, oneof the simplest parts of this project so far. Everything just fit (once I filed the gaskets a little bit). Definatly recommend the Vetterman exaust if anybody is wondering. Looking ahead to later steps, I'm going to need a flywheel and starter ring gear. Reading around, lycomings have either the 122 or 149 tooth gear, is there a way I can look at the starter I have and know which gear would fit? I can find lots of pages like this: http://www.skytecair.com/RingGearTech.htm explaining how to tell from the gear which it is, but nothing going the other way. It is a O-360A1D, so probably 149, but how can I know? Or should I just get one, then get a new starter to match? That page talks about the first 3 digits of the starter model number, which is Delco-Remy 1109519. Searching by that I find: http://www.texasairsalvage.com/main_view.php?editid1 144 Which says it is for a 122 tooth gear. Anybody know how to tell?

From: vanremog@aol.com All I can do is quote the Lycoming Parts catalog. If I am reading it correc tly for the -A1D, it uses the same parts as the common -A1A: Support Assy (Flywheel) with Ring Gear Lycoming P/N LW-16064 Starter Ring gear only Lycoming P/N 72566 I'm pretty sure this is the 149 tooth gear, but I would start by searching based on Lycoming P/Ns to ensure that you get what is correct for your engi ne. Regarding the starter, I would just suck it up and get a Skytec. -GV -----Original Message----- From: Brian Huffaker Sent: Sun, Sep 11, 2011 5:44 pm Subject: RV-List: Exhaust hung, and a starter ring gear question.
