--> Yak-List message posted by: "BUTLER, FRANCIS" <FRANCIS_BUTLER@butler-machinery.com>
I have had three Yaks, (1) 52 and (2)50's, that after sustained negative G, I can
smell fuel vapor in the cockpit. Is this common on all 52 and 50's? I am
doing more negative stuff with my 50 now and would like to find a solution.

Francis:
I've had the same experience when doing sustained inverted or hard negative
in my 52. I asked Gena Elfimov about it and his response was that it is not
unusual. I don't know what causes it and it doesn't seem to be much of an
issue with the Russian instructors I've flown with.

Subject: | Air leak - Don't have much more hair to pull out. |
--> Yak-List message posted by: Aubrey Price <aprice@vartec.net>
Last week my YAK52 started leaking down at night ( main system only ). I
have checked the pop off and put soap on every connection I can find. I have
disconnected the down stream side of the main air valve and checked to see
if it was leaking. I have checked at the fill port and it isn't leaking. I
have removed the airtank, inspected and soap tested it and the fittings.I
have had several people that have great hearing check and have found
nothing. The leak is getting worse every day. It will leak from 50ATM to 0
in less than 24 hours. I think there is a check valve somewhere that I am
missing.I tested the check valve near the filler and it's not leaking. This
almost has to be a leak inside the system or I could hear the leak. The
drawings I have of the system are bad quality and hard to read.Yesterday I
pressurized the system with dry Freon and used an electronic devise to sniff
for leaks. I found one small leak that wouldn't change the system pressure
1ATM in a week. Since the Freon detector never found anything inside the
aircraft, I have to assume the leak is between systems. I cycled the flaps
and the detector went wild, so I know it was working.I am open for all
suggustions.

From the guy who stars his stories with "There I was, at ten thousand feet, upside
down and out of gas....." I'm wondering where the gas fumes are coming from
as well.
I did find the seal on top of my aux tank (I think the over flow or transfer pump
line) had dried out and needed repacing.) Of course, mine leaked on the ground....not
as a result of TIPPING UPSIDE DOWN!!!

Just finished an annual on a CJ the banjo fitting at the top of the
header tank was leaking. The leak was staining the tank but I guess it
was leaking when the fuel level reached the top of the vent system. This
fitting would leak if you went inverted. You have to remove the tank to
get at the fitting.

Did you check the main air valve it self? I had this problem. It turned out
that the valve seat is aluminum while the valve itself is common steel. What
I found was a nice ball of rust (valve) and a very very thin grove on the
valve seat. It continued to leak even after replacing the valve with a stainless
steel valve from Bill Blackwell. It was not until I refaced the valve seat
it self, did I get a good seal which lasts me a good month at times between
starts - when I remember to close it of course :}

The check valve near the air fill port on the 52 is for the emergency
system. The two check valve on the firewall at the right and left side of
the pop off valve are for the main air system. The one on the left is from
the air fill port. The one on the right is from the "snot" bottle. There
are also two check valves under the rear cockpit floor on the right side
that go to the brake reducing valve. One from the main system and the other
from the emergency system.
Did you check the connections at the gauges in each cockpit? I have seen a
connection on a gauge leaking. There are two separate connections on each
gauge; one to the main system and one to the emergency system.
