Just the mag cap is set up to handle the SOS so that means that you can swap the mags themselves. The caps aren't really that hard to change and ARE a potential source of gremlins due to poor wire connections, and excess carbon dust. Doug has caps. I have interchanged Chinese caps and rotors in Russian mags...no problem.

Puffs of black smoke imply an overly rich mixture. The symptoms describe are what would happen to my Housai when the primer was not locked but then it usually happened on both mags. Is it possible you have two problems and the mixture problem is exacerbating the mag problem or causing partial fouling of the plugs enough to make the mag look bad? -- Brian Lloyd 6501 Red Hook Plaza, Suite 201 brian@lloyd.com St. Thomas, VI 00802 +1.340.998.9447 - voice +1.360.838.9669 - fax GMT-4

I had the very same systems and it turned out to be the "P" lead connection on one mag was loose. Also check that the mounting plate that the points are mounted on, in the mag, is tight and not loose. This give you the same indications also. Like Craig said, you can exchange mag from one side to the other. Only the distribution cap is wired different for the shower of sparks. When you switch, you will have to reindex the mags.

    --> Yak-List message posted by: "A. Dennis Savarese" <adsavar@gte.net> Hal, The mags ARE interchangeable on your engine. The only difference between the left and right mag is the cap on the left mag and the additional lead coming into that cap from the shower of sparks. When you pull the cover and the front plate that bolts to the cover, the mag can be removed and the cap will stay with the front cover plate and it's large conduit where all the leads run through.

    Subject: fire extinguishers
    --> Yak-List message posted by: "Rick Basiliere" <discrab@earthlink.net> Folks; With all due respect... Halon will amaze you at how much fire it will put out. Being a career professional fireman I had a chance to test Halon when it was new. A fully involved kitchen fire was extinguished by a one second puff of a Halon (180?, I forget the type). Halon works by interrupting the chemical chain reaction that allows the fire to continue. Water cools it and multi-purpose dry chemical smothers. The Fire Triangle some of you may remember has been replaced by the Tetrahedron. Fuel, Oxygen(oxydizer), heat, now also chemical chain reaction. Remove any one and the fire will go out. Class is over...sorry. Halon works miracles, its clean-won't mess up computers, electronics, etc. like dry chem. does. Halon is not suffocating like CO2, but you can't use it to cool your beer like CO2. I guess the jury is still out if there are any long term negative effects on the human body. Cockpit use...you don't have to be accurate with it and you don't have to deal with 2 1/2 lbs. of dry chemical dust because if you use a dry chem. you better use it all, if you don't quite get the fire totally and it flares up you won't have enough left to put it out again. School is out...sorry again. Be careful, be safe. Regards, Rick PS Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know it @##$%,s up the ozone layer. The People's Republic of Boulder had us pull Halon off all the trucks a couple of years ago. Save your hide, deal with the granola freaks later.

The 195 pilot > recharged my extinguisher for me. > So, may be they are not a total waste of time. I think that an extinguisher is great to have on the ground for fires during start-up. The military has recognized this for a long time and it has been their policy to have someone standing by with an extinguisher during start. But the extinguisher stays on the ground to be used with the next airplane starting up. But in-flight a hand-held extinguisher is, IMHO, pretty useless. The hand-held extinguisher is too small to do much and while you are strapped into the seat you can't maneuver to direct the extinguisher where there is likely to be needed and if you unstrap and maneuver to direct the extinguisher, you can't fly the airplane. Some of you know my somewhat unortodox belief that circuit breakers and fuses should not be accessible in flight. If you can't get at them you will not be motivated to try to fix a problem in flight and you won't be excessively distracted from flying the airplane. Save the troubleshooting for the ground. If you are dependent on a particular circuit working in order to safely complete a flight, you had better come up with a backup for that circuit. Fire extinguishers are in the same category. If stopping or slowing a fire is critical, put a permanent solution in place where you can trigger it and let it do its job while you fly the airplane. A hand-held extinquisher is just likely to distract you from the task of flying the airplane or from getting your precious butt out while you still can. -- Brian Lloyd 6501 Red Hook Plaza, Suite 201 brian@lloyd.com St. Thomas, VI 00802 +1.340.998.9447 - voice +1.360.838.9669 - fax GMT-4

School is out...sorry again. Be careful, be safe. Regards, Rick Halon 1301 is great! It is miracle stuff. You just aren't allowed to buy it anymore. I can no longer recertify the halon extinguishers for my engine compartments even if they meet spec (weight, presure, etc.). The replacement is supposed to be FM200 (Heptafluoropropane) and boy is it expensive! A 6lb extinguisher capable of flooding a 100 cubic foot compartment is over $400. That is approaching the cost of something that has "FAA/PMA" stamped on it. > PS Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know it @##$%,s up the ozone layer. The People's > Republic of Boulder had us pull Halon off all the trucks a couple of years > ago. Save your hide, deal with the granola freaks later. It's easier to > beg forgiveness than get permission. Which is one reason I don't plan to remove my automatic Halon extinguishers from my engine compartments as long as they still work properly. But I would not be surprised if armed agents of the EPA (yes, EPA agents are allowed to go armed) came and dragged me away. Want a chuckle? The Coast Guard says we have to pull Halon 1301 from the boat by the end of the year because it is a hazardous material. But there is no approved disposal method for Halon 1301. So I am breaking the law if I keep it and breaking the law if I get rid of it. The Coasties advocate the "don't ask, don't tell" approach to this. Why do I feel as if I am in a Kafka dream? -- Brian Lloyd 6501 Red Hook Plaza, Suite 201 brian@lloyd.com St. Thomas, VI 00802 +1.340.998.9447 - voice +1.360.838.9669 - fax GMT-4

But they are perfectly good automatic extinguishers! Temp gets to 170F and they go off. If there is no approved way of disposing of them, why not allow them to remain in use? <sigh> -- Brian Lloyd 6501 Red Hook Plaza, Suite 201 brian@lloyd.com St. Thomas, VI 00802 +1.340.998.9447 - voice +1.360.838.9669 - fax GMT-4

I have just learned that someone decided that the policy was stupid and that, if you have an undischarged Halon extinguisher that is in good shape, you may still keep it installed in your vessel. How sensible. My Halon 1301 extinguishers are half the size and weight of the FM200 unit to cover the same volume. -- Brian Lloyd 6501 Red Hook Plaza, Suite 201 brian@lloyd.com St. Thomas, VI 00802 +1.340.998.9447 - voice +1.360.838.9669 - fax GMT-4

You may want to read Section 7608. IRS agents may be armed only in connection with the enforcement of alcohol, tobacco and firearm taxes, they have no authority to be armed when it comes to income taxes. Back to yak'ing. Brian, I understand your extinguishers are mounted in the engine compartment with both a temperature trigger and a remote trigger? Seems much better than one in the cockpit. Any sources?
