So if oil & fuel pressures start to read zero chances are you've lost the oil drive shaft ... it never rains but it pours! Rob

I also suspect that there were people on this list who were not aware of the existence of the scavenge pump. >> Since there is no instrumentation on the scavenge pump, how do >> you know if it has failed?

    Subject: Winter Again
    Celebrate the First Day of Winter. My mug is poured with Sammy Adams Winter Ale and I"ll toast Winter while grilling on the Barbie out on the Lanai. Had to mow the yard today and trim the roses for the tough months of cold ahead :>) Cover those oil cooler intakes with winterization kits. At least in Winter I don't get as many bug strikes....

My mug is poured with Long Trail Hibernator, I had to chip more ice off the driveway, then go down to the Yak and work on my snot bottle after turning the heater on in my hangar which got the temp up inside to above 30F, it was 23F outside. No grilling on the lanai, the grill's frozen. I'll fly form tomorrow AM it ought to be around 20F and the ground, I don't want to know what's it's going to be at 6-7K. The good news, wait, there isn't any :) Steve "SOB" Fox Yak 52 N3043R http://homepage.mac.com/steve.fox/PhotoAlbum5.html

    Subject: Re: Winter Again
    --> Yak-List message posted by: fish@aviation-tech.com Craig & Steve, Had a hard time deciding which shorts and t-shirt to wear today. Now I remember why I live on the west coast, in a desert. Three hundered sixty days a year of sunshine. The surf was up on the coast today, means we will have a storm shortly (1-2 days, then more sun) Bad news is I need a heater in the hanger after dark, the temp drops into the low 60's.
