William, nice sub-panel work. One thing that I have learned in my
work on the -10 is that the sub-panel can be your best friend. There
are a lot of items that you need to remote-mount (avionics cooling
fan, some sensors, altitude encoder, weather receiver, etc.) for which
the sub-panel can be used. It is a fantastic way to get a good
mounting place without having to go between the sub-panel and the
firewall, which is very hard to get to even with a big hole in the sub-
panel. For those who haven't gotten there yet, it would be wise to
list out all of the things that mount somewhere back there and to plan
where you will mount them before removing too much of your sub-panel.

The first fifty hours were trouble free, as far as fuel pressure goes,
but now for the past 40 hours or so, I'm getting fuel pressure
fluctuation's. Normally the F/P runs in the mid to low 20's, but now
constantly fluctuates from 8 to 27 psi. The engine runs ok, but it's
disconcerting. Has anybody experienced this on an IO540D4A5 before,
would the engine actually keep running if the F/P was really down to 8psi?

Buy the video. Sell the kids if you have to raise the cash. There are a few
tricks that make it worth the $30. Especially getting the gap spot on perf
ect.
As far as the wind screen is concerned, I would like to use this method but
as a rank amateur, I am not sure I want to be the first to try. I bet that
piece of plexi is not cheap.

Les,
Are you suggesting to install the front windsheild with this method? I am u
sing Silpruf on the doors and cabin=C2-glass=C2-but plan to follow plan
s on the windscreen... If anyone gets the chance to check out a Cirrus, you
will see similar install on their windows. just a bead of adhesive seperat
ing the window from the composite. Looks really clean, if ya'll do it right
.....would love to check out that video...just too poor from buying the Sil
pruf. And Les is right...it's high performance silicone, you couldn't paint
it if you tried. The big trick is to get the gap as uniform as possible pr
ior to the install. If you use Dave's method it works well. After paint you
fill the gap...I'm shooting for less than an 1/8th, closer to 3/32 to a 1/
16th with the silpruf. leave the bead to dry then a sharp razor to trim the
bead flush,=C2-should leave you a nice clean line between the plexi and
the composite top.

Subject: RV10-List: Silpruf / Window Installation and other magic
Hi
One the strength of Dave Saylor's recommendation and other comments, I purc
hased the AirlinkTech video on using Silpruf to set install windows. The vi
deo can be found at: http://tinyurl.com/2ndhr9
I watched the video last night and have a few comments, FWIW.
First, a big negative - it=99s on a VHS tape not on a DVD. After that
it was a very nice "how to" video.
In short the process used is to mask the windows and then set them in place
on small Silpruf standoffs that keep the windows flush with the canopy. A
bead of Silpuf is used to install the windows. Screw on clecos are used to
keep everything in pace while things dry.
The video is very detailed and shows everything required, step by step. It
explains how and why to mask the windows to get a nice sharp reveal. It als
o shows how to trim the windows for a perfect fit.
A groove (about 1/8") is left between the windows and the canopy. After pai
nting, Silpruf is used to fill the groove. =C2-Apparently Silpruf cannot
be painted so you must pick a Silpuf colour that works with your pain schem
e.
At first blush there seems to be some obvious advantages to this method the
y being:
=C2=B7 =C2-=C2-=C2-=C2-=C2-=C2-=C2-=C2- The Silpruf has a l
ong working time so you don=99t have to play =9Cbeat the clock
=9D when installing.
=C2=B7 =C2-=C2-=C2-=C2-=C2-=C2-=C2-=C2- The Silpruf is non
reactive so you can use normal masking tape to setup the =9Creveal
=9D edges. You will have lots of time to get everything just right befor
e you have to remove the masks.
=C2=B7 =C2-=C2-=C2-=C2-=C2-=C2-=C2-=C2- The Silpruf is flex
ible so there won=99t be cracks in the paint / caulking around the wi
ndows
=C2=B7 =C2-=C2-=C2-=C2-=C2-=C2-=C2-=C2- In the event that a
window needs to be replaced. It would be a much easier job to remove & rep
lace the window * I think *.
=C2=B7 =C2-=C2-=C2-=C2-=C2-=C2-=C2-=C2- You are not glassin
g onto a window with all the associated issues with sanding etc. As someone
mentioned in an earlier post, with windows you can=99t fix a screw u
p with an OOPS rivet.
=C2=B7 =C2-=C2-=C2-=C2-=C2-=C2-=C2-=C2- Before curing and a
fter, excess along the groove can be easily removed.
A quick search shows that Silpruf is available in a wide choice of colours
including: White, Black, Limestone, Light Grey, Aluminium, GreyDark, Grey,
Precast White and Bronze.
Right after I watched the video I checked the plans to see how the front wi
ndow is installed. My recollection was there was no =9Cjoggle
=9D at the bottom of the front windscreen. Using Silpruf on the front winds
creen would, I think, require building a joggle and then trimming the windo
w to fit. I just noticed that Dave noted this rework in one of his posts as
well.
The video is very detailed and shows everything required, step by step. It
explains how and why to mask the windows to get a nice sharp reveal. It als
o shows how to trim the windows for a perfect fit. If you are contemplating
using this method, get the video, it is well worth the cost.
Anyway, I for one plan to use this method on the side windows. I still have
a lot of time to contemplate the front windscreen..
Cheers
Les Kearney

Hi Jim,
I am sorry, I am really having trouble understanding why I need this. My an
dair valve has six ports. I have plumbed all the lines coming from the fuel
tanks and going back to the fuel tanks. I originally needed to return fuel
to the tanks because I was going to be running electrical fuel pumps all t
he time. I am still going to run overflow fuel to the tqanks if I am using
the boast pump.
I also am using a six inch extension to place the valve lower down in the t
unnel. I have no problem with space with the port that will be going to the
fuel filter(Outflow). So why can I not just run the 3/8" return line from
the pump package relief valve to the return port on the Andair valve?

Ugh. Great for old panels, but if starting new, why do it? Not that cheap
for what you get. At least not from what I can make of the literature.
You're in the business. What do you think? I especially wouldn't have 3
across. Would make me dizzy. Best IMHO to have a single large screen.

John,
Don't sweat it so much if you think it'll work. You're just
the first person who has had the more expensive dual valve
required for the subie and the continental install who's then
decided to go to a standard IO-540 install. If you want to
pump it back to the same tank it came from, I'm guessing it
should work fine. You're pioneering this one though, so
you're the one who'll have the best feedback....in a couple
years. ;)

Possibly, I haven't checked that yet, but it's inconsistent. The

That sounds like a sensor issue, maybe either a bad crimp or a bad ground.

That's what I thought to, but when I turn on the boost pump, it
immediately returns to normal pressure.

| Subject: | Another RV-10 painted |
Finally got around to creating a simple web page showing my RV-10 in its new colors.
Paint was done by AOG Aircraft Painting in Mena, Arkansas and although
it is not one of the flashier -10's flying, I like it quite a lot. Only problem
I have is that the airplane now looks like it is store-bought, and most people
guess it is a Lancair and not a homebuilt RV. I can live with that... :)

| Subject: | Air Ramps and Governor interference |
G'day all,
I've just installed the air ramps in the upper cowl and there is
significant interference with the prop governor. It seems that the
interference would go away if the air ramps had been pushed fully
forward in the cowl, but at the expense of a significant transition
(step) between the cowl inlet and the ramp. I notice on Tim's site that
he has trimmed the ramp for the governor - same condition as mine. Is
this normal or have I stuffed something up?
Cheers,
Ron

Beautiful! Congratulations!
I especially like the -7 & -10 shot. Must be nice to have a choice.

Very normal indeed. Now, just make sure that in the hollow
area under the air ramp you also seal it so that air can't
traverse that cavity....that will help greatly with your
CHT's later.
