Greetings,
My CHT has gone from intermittent to inop in the past year. I feel there is
a break in the lead at the plug but have not ventured farther than just a
casual inspection. I want to remove the insulation check the wire but want
advice prior to surgery.
Thanks in advance,
Phil Salter

Have you swapped the CHT gauge from the rear cockpit to the front? If you
haven't, try that first to be sure it isn't the instrument that failed. If
the problem remains with the front instrument, also take the cannon plug
apart and check for cold solder joints or broken wires. At the spark plug
end, it is a very simple mechanism. Much like a thermistor of some kind.
There is about a 4-5" lead that actually screws together to the harness. Go
ahead and strip the wrapping from around the two CHT probes on the rear plug
of #4 cylinder and see what you find. You will need an Ohm meter to
determine which one goes the front. So you'll have to have someone in the
front cockpit to help. You can also swap the heat probes around too.
Let me know what you find.
Dennis

Over a year ago, someone posted a link to an outfit that sold a variety of
lapel pens including a good Yak/CJ pin. Anyone still have the contact info?
Thanks, Dave

I'm wondering if my empty weight is in line with what is "normal" for the CJ-6A.
Yakity Yaks lists it as 1900lbs and China Defence lists it as 1095 kgs(2414
lbs). With the black boxes removed, I'm coming in at 2340 lbs. Normal or Not?

Mike;
Maybe just a tad heavy. The average of the ones I have done is 2285. That is
zero fuel and oil, approx. 28 lbs of ballast at the tail and 35 lbs on the
ADF rack (air bottle).
1900 seems a little optimistic.

Hey Mike;
Further to my last the Chinese empty weight (which I had not seen before) of
2414 lbs is interesting.
I remove all of the old avionics and all of the associated wiring and
conduit. I weighed that at the first restoration at 195 lbs. I add approx.
63 lbs of ballast so in effect actually remove about 132 lbs.
2414 - 132 = 2282 Lbs. Amazing.
Cheers;
Walt
