(so I cannot se her new clothing, dam-it) My Yak is a "long wing"... which by many is preferred due to low drag while pulling G=B4s. And for its excellent low speed handling characteristics.

    Subject: strut servicing?
    --> Yak-List message posted by: "Rutledge Wilson" <tryon@aviator.org> Ok, folks. CJ Strut Question How do you dump pressure on the strut SAFELY. I have the hollow machined adapter which works great for adding pressure but not correct for draining struts. I have a fear of blast fluid and air in the face to risk sticking anything in the valve. Also is the service valve normal "right hand" thread into the strut? I tried to just break it loose a little... wouldn't budge though? So, I questioned if it was left hand thread for any reason? Further what is the purpose of hte double nutted - hollow bolt on the top of the strut? Schrader valve maybe??? I wasn't sure, and wanted to ask before tampering with it. Also just wanted to verify, proper fluid level, service procedure and correct pressure. Any help comments appreciated. Thanks, Tryon
