    Subject: timing and manuals
    --> Yak-List message posted by: "Mark Schrick" <schrick@pacbell.net> MJ, Yak 50 manuals? Well that sounds interesting. Are they russian translated or ones that you have put together yourself? I have sold 5 of the CD's so far (waiting for cash to arrive) will most likely order another ten here in about two weeks. The CD looks awesome and would love to see screen clips of the Y50 CD if availible. Put it on your website. I have been passing around the Yak 50 info that you sent me to see if I can get some interest in those two aircraft. Still working it.

    Subject: Engine vents
    --> Yak-List message posted by: Joe Howse <joeh@shaw.ca> Looking for ideas on engine venting when replacing the Huosai engine with the M14 on a CJ. Should one modify the oil tank on the CJ to duplicate the vent system as used on the Yak 18T? Joe

    Subject: Re: Valve
    --> Yak-List message posted by: "Walt Lannon" <lannon@look.ca> G'day Lou; Valve adjustment ---- 1. Remove all front spark plugs - Mag switch off. 2. Remove all rocker arm cover plates. 3. On # 1 Cylinder-- find top dead centre on the compression stroke. You don't need the TDC indicator for this. Plug the hole with your thumb while you rotate the prop (in the normal direction), you will feel the compression. Continue to rotate until the piston is at the top of it's stroke. You can confirm this with a smooth ended rod of some kind (one that cannot fall into the cyl.) and notice that the rocker arms are no longer moving. Both valves are closed. Practice on this cyl. so you can reach the TDC position without going too far past it. If you do go too far back the prop about 45 degs. and try again. You will notice that there is a few degrees of dwell where the piston does not move. Any position within this range is acceptable. 4. You must have an adequate thin walled, well fitting, socket or ring spanner to avoid damaging the lock nuts. A ring spanner is preferable since you will want to hold the adjusting screw with a screwdriver. If you have the Chinese or Russian tool for this the above is moot. Clearance limits are 3 to 4 mm (.012" to .016") Check the clearance before moving the locknut. To determine the actual clearance use the feeler gauge at 90 degs to the rocker arm and find the feeler that will give just a slight amount of drag. To adjust, back off the locknut - I do not try to hold the screw while doing this, just note the slot location and see if it moves. If you try to hold it the wrench will likely slip and do some damage. Adjust the screw to a slight drag with a .014" feeler. Re-tighten the locknut and re-check the clearance. You may have to hold the screw for this but with a little practice you can find the position that will give the correct gap after tightening. Do both valves and before leaving the cylinder confirm that both locknuts are tight. 5. We started on #1 just to make it simple. Continue in firing order (1,3,5,7,9,2,4,6,8). Since this is a geared engine, unlike direct drive, the prop blade position relative to the cylinder for a given piston position varies for each cyl. Ignore that. With your handy piston position indicator in place in #3 cyl. rotate to TDC and continue as above. You can if you like confirm compression with your thumb but as long as you follow the firing order it will be correct. 6. Depending on the configuration of your wrench you may have to back up the prop to loosen and tighten one of the locknuts. I can't remember which one. If so just remember to re position to TDC for clearance checks. One other little note: These engines have a little spring in the push rod assembly that keeps the valve lifter roller in contact with the cam ring when the roller is not in contact with the cam lobe. A cunning little device that reduces lobe and roller wear. You will notice this as a light pressure closing the valve clearance. Lift the rocker by hand and note that it will return to closed when you release it. This does impart a minor drag on the feeler, just be aware of that and judge feeler drag accordingly. If in doubt err on the loose side! Practice by increasing and decreasing thickness by .001" or .002". Have you completed and flown the CJ yet?
