    --> RV10-List message posted by: "William DeLacey" <whd721@msn.com> Thanks to all who replied. I thought that the times would be close to the same as most tasks to complete are similar. However, the biggest variable appears to be the skill of the builder. well duh!

Getting close to section 17 and the outboard leading edge. I helped a friend install his Duckworks lights in his RV 6 that he just about has complete. So far, I think I will go just with the lighting system 6 as is recommended by Vans and place the landing lights in the wingtips. I would, however, like to cheat a little and install the nutplates and extra wires in the left wing so that if I decide to add a duckworks landing light at a later date, most of the hard work will be done. Could someone who has installed the duckworks light fax me a copy of the template for the nutplate locations? I would be much abliged. Fax; 903 784 3200 See you'all at Oshgosh. Wed thru Sat. Thanks Fred Williams slo-building in Texas 40515 drfred@cox-internet.com

    Subject: IO-540 Engine Question
    --> RV10-List message posted by: "Carl Franz" <cfranz10121@chartermi.net> Jim, The rolling tool is used to swage the tubes in place. Basically a mandrel with three rollers that are expanded in the tube while twisting the tool to enlarge the intake tube enough to be retained by the crank case groove surrounding the tube. So, yes, you need to borrow the tool in order to expand the stubs where they exit the case. -----Original Message----- [mailto:owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Carl Franz Sent: Friday, July 07, 2006 7:51 PM --> RV10-List message posted by: "Carl Franz" --> <cfranz10121@chartermi.net> Jim, The intake tubes are swaged into the crankcase. There is a tool that can re-swage the induction tubes, improving the retention, but an application of proseal around the joint will help prevent induction leaks. When I rebuilt my O-360 I found a similar condition on two of the four tubes. My local Lycon shop fixed the problem for about twenty bucks. Carl Franz N410FS (reserved), N215CF RV-6 flying -----Original Message----- [mailto:owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of jim@CombsFive.Com Sent: Thursday, July 06, 2006 8:56 PM --> RV10-List message posted by: <jim@combsfive.com> I have a used IO-540 engine and today I removed the intake / induction tubes that run from the sides of the oil sump up to the cylinders. Down at the oil sump there is a flexible hose that joins the metal tubes together. After removing the tubes I noticed that three of the six stubs coming out of the oil sump were loose and could be moved in and out about an 1/8 inch. I talked to a local EAA member and he said the tubes were "rolled" in order to slightly expand them and hold them in place. The sealant around the tubes is the second level of sealing, kind of the suspenders and belt routine, if you're not sure you can keep your pants up. The parts (gaskets etc.) you'd get from your local engine repair facility. I get a lot of parts from AERO in the Chicago area (800-910-1281) Sorry for the delay, I've been busy working on the RV-10 and not keeping up with the e-mail. Carl So the questions are: (1) Do I need to get / borrow a tool to roll these again? (2) Can this be done while the sump is attached? (3) What about using a sealant (Fuel tank sealant comes to mind) to seal up the tubes to the oil sump vs "rolling" them again? Also, Where is a good place to order gaskets? I would like to replace the valve cover gaskets while I am cleaning up the outside. Need new cylinder intake gaskets as well. I have ordered manuals for the engine from Lycoming but they are not here yet. I need to get part numbers. Thanks, Jim Combs N40192

    --> RV10-List message posted by: "John W. Cox" <johnwcox@pacificnw.com> On a NON-Vans modified Empennage to Vertical/Horizontal fairing. If necessary, will have a DER determine move to the vertical with necessary reinforcement and running of airflow through a composite 180 degree duct down through the lightening hole and then back forward onto the aft baggage bulkhead for the conditioning/control plenum. Fairings are getting lots of attention due to drag and QOW on the composite parts.

    hey all - made tons of progress on the fuse this weekend, but i left off at the temp install of the gear mount (where you mark and drill the holes for the floor rib. i cursed a bit, and wiggled, pushed, tapped, and otherwise made my best effort to cajole the things into place, but they are fighting me... anyone else have any trouble with this part? i have the left one in, but i don't know how i'll get it back out - the bolts were really tight to get in... the right one won't line up at all. anyone have to apply a bit of judicious buffing or clearancing of things in the neighborhood? harrumph. cj #40410 fuse

    Subject: Gear Mount install
    Chris, Fear not - you are not alone. I too had to work pretty hard to get the gear mounts installed. First thing to check is that you have no interference with the forward gear mount brace against the outboard forward seat rail support. I needed to grind a bit off (the seat support) for clearance. I also found that I needed to sacrifice a few AN3-14 or -15 bolts to make alignment pins. Once the holes were aligned, the bolts went in with a bit of Boelube. I think I needed to run the drill through a few holes that were out by a few thou'. cheers, Ron #187 fuse/finishing -----Original Message----- [mailto:owner-rv10-list-server@matronics.com]On Behalf Of Chris Johnston Sent: Monday, 17 July 2006 2:48 PM hey all - made tons of progress on the fuse this weekend, but i left off at the temp install of the gear mount (where you mark and drill the holes for the floor rib. i cursed a bit, and wiggled, pushed, tapped, and otherwise made my best effort to cajole the things into place, but they are fighting me... anyone else have any trouble with this part? i have the left one in, but i don't know how i'll get it back out - the bolts were really tight to get in... the right one won't line up at all. anyone have to apply a bit of judicious buffing or clearancing of things in the neighborhood? harrumph. cj #40410 fuse
