This happens when the securing fittings between the throttle and carb allow the guide tube to flex the link can get caught up inside the tube. To check this remove the panels between the seat and the left hand console move the throttle. If there is roughness or you see the tube flex then the guide pipe may be bent. Hope this helps Gus -----Original Message----- From: owner-yak-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-yak-list-server@matronics.com]On Behalf Of Frank Haertlein Subject: Yak-List: Re: Yak 52 Close Call --> Yak-List message posted by: "Frank Haertlein" Speaking of close calls.................. I was making an ordinary landing at WJF and after touch down noticed my RPM would not come all the way down. There was enough power being produced that it would have made stopping difficult. I applied full power and went around the pattern again. The next landing was perfectly normal.....I was able to get RPM down enough to make a normal stop. I looked at the throttle cable and there is no problem with it. I'm perplexed as to what may have cause it. Anyone got any ideas?

Look at the shadows on the >airplane and then on the people. I can't see any shadows on the people but the shadow of the side-view mirror on the truck seems to jive with the wing and horizontal stab shadow on the fuselage. Regardless, I think it unlikely that the USDF would have people at the top of a hill in the path of a fire where the fire was so close as to require a drop right there. And where is the sign of the fire? I would expect some smoke at least. And if it were a practice drop I don't imagine they would have people that close. Still, it is a very cool and convincing picture. My hat is off to whoever constructed it. >Regards, > >Al DeVere > >----- Original Message ----- >From: "Brian Lloyd" >To: >Subject: Re: Yak-List: Firebomb.jpg > > > > --> Yak-List message posted by: Brian Lloyd > > > > At 10:43 PM 1/4/2003, you wrote: > > >--> Yak-List message posted by: "Frank Haertlein" > > > > > > >Thought you guys might get a kick out of this picture.. > > >http://home.earthlink.net/~yak52driver/FIREBOMB.JPG > > > > Now that is close. > > > > Brian Lloyd 6501 Red Hook Plaza, Ste 201 > > brian@lloyd.com St. Thomas, VI 00802 > > +1.340.998.9447 +1.360.838.9669 > > > > >==== > > >==== > > >==== > > >==== > > > > > > Brian Lloyd 6501 Red Hook Plaza, Ste 201 brian@lloyd.com St. Thomas, VI 00802 +1.340.998.9447 +1.360.838.9669 ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 08:00:25 AM PST US From: cjpilot710@aol.com Subject: Re: Yak-List: OPINIONS.................... --> Yak-List message posted by: cjpilot710@aol.com Frank, I like that a lot.

We'd just gotten down from doing quite a number of hammerheads (well, pseudo-hammerheads since I always kicked the tail over when I had 40-60 KIAS of airspeed left) and I'm wondering if that was the cause of the mess. I'd never done a series of them like this before. I never lost oil pressure and things never got too hot, nor were there any strange noises to be heard from the engine at any time. Wishing he knew more, Jon ________________________________ Message 7 _____________________________________ Time: 11:27:08 PM PST US From: "Jay McIntyre" Subject: Yak-List: Oil System One-way valve --> Yak-List message posted by: "Jay McIntyre" Hi all... is anyone out there able to tell me where abouts the one-way valve in the stock CJ oil system is located. One of our machines here has suddenly developed a major haemorrhage via the exhaust stack and is reapidly draining the oil tank. I imagine that it is either located in the firewall gauze filter housing or the inlet to the oil pump. Thanks in advance Jay McIntyre
