I did exactly that before I came to Europe Friday. I loaded everything with
Marvel Mystery Oil. I have never removed the head and would like to know
what kind of valve arrangement it has and the torque setting. Thanks for the
help. I call Cornelius, but they don't have manuals because it is out of

Aubrey,
I have one somewhere in my stuff, I'll try to find it and see if it has the
torque specs. I bought it some years back from a guy who sells Tech manuals
in Trade a Plane. Before you open it up load the entire pump with solvent
and let it set for a day or so, then try it again after draining it well and
adding a bit of compressor oil to the clys, You may simply have stuck rings
or a stuck poppet valve.

Does anyone have a manual for a Cornelius air compressor? I have one that I
use to refill my air bottles. One of the three cylinders isn't working
correctly. It would be nice to have a manual before I open things up. I am
told they are very touchy about head bolt torque.

--> Yak-List message posted by: cpayne@joimail.com
Ernie,
There are many reasons why the prop might not move when you
push the start button. That being said, I'm not going to
recite all that come to mind but the two main reasons in my
experience are sticking of the QDF valve, ie: not opening
all the way, and pitting of the exhaust valves on my Huosai
engine. Other folks have suffered from sticky exhaust valve
guides due to build-up of deposits. However, even MMO can't
fix the way you operate the engine.
A test; in level flight with normal CHT and oil temps, run
the power to maximum continuous. If you feel some roughness
the probable cause is loosing of the deposits on the piston
top and heads as temperatures go up. You will be blowing out
the "crap".
Next, advance to full RPM and throttle for the allowable
time, same drill. I'm assuming light deposits but
immediately reduce power if severe roughness results, lest
the spark plugs get fouled by all the loose grit and you end
up with a worse problem than you had. Oh, do this near an
airport :)
The buildup on my Huosai engine was so bad that I had to
pull all the cylinders, remove the carbon, polish the valves
and reseat them. Each piston also had carbon build-up on the
ring groves. Of course, this is why I went to the M-14P as I
couldn't find replacement parts for the engine's "inards".
Bottom Line: Respect the Manufacturer's limits but don't
"baby" the engine to excess.

POWER SETTINGS page on my web site, www.yak-52.com, to include a column
showing fuel consumption in gallons and liters per hour. Also have added

NO. The oil cooler for the CJ-6 was in the wing root. The fixed inlet is on
the leading edge and the exit for the cooler is on the belly. The control
works a variable door at the exit. Twisting the knob one way closed the door,
the other way opened it. You can control your oil temp quite effectively with
it. You may find that you will want to provide some control for you
installation because the CJ's oil cooler is quite effective.

It was the day the Sleeping Giant was awakened. I provided framework
for 9/11 that gave us the resolve to do something about it. It was a
day we will remember the loss of life, yes, but it is also a day of
great heroism. There are necessary evils in life...without them we do
not face challenges, and without challenges we cannot progress...in any
fashion. So, while it was a tragic day, it served a larger purpose...
Done opining... Merry Christmas to all!

| Subject: | Cockpit labeling Answers |
--> Yak-List message posted by: Patrick Scofield <patrick@designworx.com>
Gentlemen,
Listen and I will impart a couple of cockpit labeling secrets.
I've been in the Industrial design field for twenty years. To build
accurate product prototype models for clients we used rub-down letters.
When we couldn't find the letters shapes and forms we needed we would
have theme made custom. For a brief period of time there was a
process called INT that you could do yourself, but it was cranky and
troublesome
There is still a source, I've worked with this gentleman for the past
twenty years and he is likely one of two guys left in the country that
makes custom rub-downs. He is used to working with professionals and
if he is handled poorly he will dry up as a source. He chemically
mixes the compounds and floats them in a water bath onto glass it is
quit an old world process ( I hope I have this right Ken).
His Name is Ken Fritz and he can be reached at ken Fritz Graphics (602)
274-2864 kenfritz@cox.net
The best way to work with him is to send email him an Adobe Illustrator
file, again he is not Kinko's nor is he 'Fast Signs', I send him
complete files in the correct format and I don't ask him to do design
(although he can). If you ask him to do more it will cost more. He
can generate any color rub down in anything your master art desires,
the rest is up to you.
So far I've done about 18 cockpits this way, L-39's and my CJ-6. We
use, yellow, blue, red, black and white rub-downs to achieve the
results. I generate usable master art in Macromedia Freehand, export
it as an .ai file and ask Ken to output them. Custom colors are
specified using the Pantone system. He uses a UV inhibitor in the
cockpit labels and a moderate tack adhesive. I apply the labels over
a PPG catalyzed urethane base coat, apply a light mist of PPG clear on
top (too much will lift the rub downs edges) and then two modest flood
coats. Voila! Remember that rub-downs are pressure and heat sensitive
and have a shelf-life of less than 6 months. Also large area labels
rely too much on the label's adhesive and too little on the entombing
qualities of the clear-coat, so be careful!
Again I want to repeat that Ken is a real gent, rough handling will not
improve his efforts, reduce his cost or speed his delivery.

Years ago I took off in a Cherokee, used a couple hundred feet more
runway, initial climb only about 300 ft/s. After the wheels left
the ground I heard a slight, muffled popping noise (I was wearing
DC ANC headset with ANC turned off). I did a tight pattern and
landed. Turned out one of the plastic mag gears had lost some
teeth. A senior pilot/IA told me the plane was backfiring the
whole take-off run. We figured that someone had tried to turn
the prop with a mag lock on.
So if you hear a noise, you know it is NOT minor!
Have fun,
Roy

Does anybody know of a 18t based in Northern CA, that the owner would
be willing to allow somebody to just look over?
I may be in the market for a 18t, who knows why? (OK stupid
question..., doesn't have to make sense...). Over the years, I've
thought about it numerous times, and had the opportunity to smooze a
bit with a 52..., but I've not really had a good chance to sit in one
(let alone fly in one), or to really look one over, closely.
In short, I haven't really been able to make up my mind as to whether I
REALLY want one.
Being able to look one over for an hour or so would be helpful (or so I
think). I'm NOT making an unsolicited offer on a plane..., I really
just want to look.
Any suggestions would be appreciated -- John Saare

And to add to that, Dennis & I have been chatting off-list & I have updated
the cockpit cards with his updated info re fuel burn and blower pressure.
So those folk that have the old version don't cut out and laminate just
yet...
Will post soon, but thought to update the cards for those who fly
non-metric, so a question: do the guys in the US fly with standard ASI (kmh)
or change ASI to one calibrated in MPH or KTS?
FWIW, we have a funny/strange system in SA. We have been metric generally
for many decades now, and most people cannot relate to MPH or inches, feet
etc.
But for flying, we think in kts and nautical miles for speed & distance, in
feet for altitude but hectopascal / millibar for pressure. When asking for
taxi or joining at airfield with ATC, we are given QNH (in hectopascals) in
order to set our altimeters (in feet) to read altitude AMSL correctly.
My Yak has all standard Russian metric instrumentation except for altimeter.
I see checklists etc. posted on US sites that read in MPH though, hence the
question.
Also FWIW, when driving if someone talks about miles or speed as MPH, it
means nothing and I can't relate without first doing some math. But when
flying, the reverse is true. If given km or kmh, I first have to convert to
nm and kts before I can relate. I guess everything is relative.

Listers and Lurkers,
I have been contacted by a gentleman looking for a phone number for Igor
Gurswenski (I know I have misspelled his last name). He ran a business
called Yak USA or Yak America or some such. And yes I have heard all the
Igor stories and so had this fellow, he is looking for Igor for all the
"normal" reasons. Any help would be appreciated.
Always Yakin,
Doug Sapp

As an IP in the CJ6A, I have run into all three, i.e. kts, mph, and kph. Kph make
sense as that is what the aircraft is originally equipped with and what the
manuals use as a standard. I also like Kts because that is the standard for
velocity and for navigation over most of the world. MPH makes absolutely no
sense to me in the CJ6A at all. OTOH, MPH doesn't make sense to me in any aircraft

Huh? Not millibars?

Which ones are in MPH? I haven't seen any. The checklists and specs on my website (http://www.cj6.org) are in both KPH and KTS.

I understand and agree 100%.

| Subject: | Airspeed Indicator problem |
--> Yak-List message posted by: Bryan Coppersmith <bryan@yaknz.com>
I recently read an article where someone (in USA I think) had a problem
with their airspeed indicator operating in reverse. We have the same
problem on one of our Yak 52's here in New Zealand but I can no longer
find the article.
Does anyone have a link to the article or know what causes this problem?
Thanks
BJ

Thump chuff? Not good. Be careful--backfiring can bend rods with
potentially catastrophic results.

Sounds like the pitot and static lines are reversed. Since you have not
indicated a discrepancy with the altimeter or rate of climb it suggests the
screw up is at the ASI.
