It takes about 6 ounces of draining to clear up the flakes. Has anyone experienced something similar? I have a OB 8. Could it be the tanks sealer is dissolving? Thanks, Steve Glasgow ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 05:09:42 PM PST US From: "Larry Bowen" Subject: RE: RVSouthEast-List: Flakes in fuel --> RVSouthEast-List message posted by: "Larry Bowen" Like corn flakes sized flakes? Or specs? Proseal is blakish, but doesn't break down from fuel. Maybe it's from the fuel truck or inground tank. I'd monitor to try to establish a trend, if any...... - Larry Bowen Larry@BowenAero.com http://BowenAero.com > -----Original Message----- > From: Steve Glasgow [mailto:willfly@carolina.rr.com] > Sent: Wednesday, September 15, 2004 4:46 PM > To: SERV > Subject: RVSouthEast-List: Flakes in fuel > > --> RVSouthEast-List message posted by: "Steve Glasgow" > --> > > During preflight when the aircraft has set for some time, > when I drain fuel from under the wing I find some brown or > blackish flakes.

I'm down for now. I had to send the Rose ignition module back. It quite Sunday shortly after start-up. Anyway, I'm taking the opportunity to tweak some things and sound proof the firewall. Boy that thing is loud!! Any tips for me related to sound-proofing? Anyone?

Used spray glue to hold it in place, no problems so far. Just cut and paste! Sorry to hear of the latest problem, better to quit after start than after takeoff. I promise after you have done your time (40 hours) you will just fly it and put it to bed. I know you can't wait.

Or do the sidewalls need to be done too?
