    Subject: Prop spinner cutouts
    From: Karol Hansen <karolamy@roadrunner.com>
    Chris, Just to let you know the pressure on the blades can be overcome carefully, and by hand, and not damaging the prop. If you place the prop assy with the studs downward onto a soft surface like carpet, one person can apply a twisting motion pressure on one blade and another person can apply the opposite twisting motion on the other blade - again just using your clean hands. Give it constant firm twisting pressure and you will feel and see the blades begin to turn as they would in motion on the crank being affected by governor/oil pressure. Now mind you no 5 year old will be able to do this, as it does take some firm twisting, but you can do it! Once they start to twist keep the motion going until they bottom out on the stops - you will feel that it has stopped. Now the hard part! Hold the blades in this position and mark your reference points on all your parts. If you relax your pressure, the blades will just return by themselves to their initial position. If this happens, no worries, just do the procedure again and know what to expect next time! I would recommend that you perform this procedure as close to the center of the prop assy as possible (not at the outboard tip of the blades), as in the closer to the hub you grab, the better. So again, two people is easier - soft surfaces like carpet to protect all surfaces of your nice new prop (keep the plastic protection on the blades, just move them back a bit for visual spinner clearance check) - twist opposite until the stops are felt and hold it there - make your marks - go cut - put back on and test it. Tape off all surfaces on the blades so as not to scratch anything while you are test fitting. Your other option is as someone else said - wait until it is mounted on the engine, then the above is even easier. Your other option is as Bob (TCW) said - controlled Air Pressure applied to the input (aft) side of the hub. He has a good pic showing what he did on his site .. Good Luck!

    Is there some reason I can't find the Bonaco Standard RV10DBL kit on their web site. A search turns up 0 items. Dave -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dave Fritzsche 40813 Puyallup, WA Wings

    I don't think they have ever had it there. Just call and ask for RV-10 brake kit. Just decide whether you want both from resevoir to all master cylinders, any any the tunnel, or just fuselage to brake calipers. They have dimensions for all of that.

    From: Bob Leffler <rv@thelefflers.com>
    After shipping the data logs from my two flights and ground testing to Lycoming, they are recommending replacing my fuel pump. Naturally, I am just outside the warranty period. They recommended a part #62B26931, which I can find that it is an approved substitute for the installed part, which is a LW15473. Anyone know what the difference may be? Bob Sent from my iPad

    Looks like Lycoming has approved that part number. Have no idea the difference. Maybe different vendor?
