The CJ vave Doug sells will not fit into 52's or 50's AS IS.- However, th
e internal plunger and spring will fit PERFECTLY as replacements for the va
lve already in the aircraft.- Make sure to replace them both as a pair.
- =0AA few comments.- =0A1.-It is amazing his main tank did not blow.
- =0A2.- How in the world did it pressurize at all with the snot valve
open?- =0ASome things here do not sound right.- =0AI would advise empty
ing all air and then using external air with a known good gage to repressur
ize and make sure your aircraft gage is reading correctly. =0AThere is no q
uestion that the spring with washers deal with another case of some home br
ew repair made by someone less than bright.- Don't be surprised, that kin
d of thing happens all the time.- =0AMark Bitterlich=0A=0A=0A=0A----- Ori

ak-List: Pop-off valve=0A=0A=0AI find it hard to believe what I am reading
here! -80-ATM?? =0ADo you not have any-manuals for your aircraft? The
system TEST pressure is 75 ATM. The operational limit is 50 ATM.=0AYour pr
essure relief valve is obviously in terrible condition. There should be no
washers, these were no doubt added by someone who either has no idea how th
e system works or was too cheap to buy a new valve-plunger or, more likel
y,-both.=0AI assume you are flying a Yak52 where the emergency tank is no
t charged by the compressor. If that is the case you are safe to set the re
lief pressure at a maximum of 50 ATM. -If it is a CJ6 you should set to a
maximum of 45 ATM as you will find the emergency pressure creeping up anot
her 5 ATM. =0AAll of this assumes of course that you have a serviceable rel
ief valve. =0AAt the very least you need a new valve plunger preferably wit
h a new spring and quite possibly a new valve body. =0ADoug Sapp has all of
these in stock for the CJ.- Whether they fit the-52 I don't know but i
f not I'm sure George Coy or Jill-can help you.=0A-=0AWalt--=0A----

rth of July!- I am having an issue with my pop-off valve.- If I leave t
he snot valve in during cruise, the main air pressure climbs to over 8 on t
he scale (80 ATMs).- If I cruise with the snot open, it will not climb mu
ch above 5.- When I land and it is at 8, the pop-off valve slowly hisses
for an hour or more and slowly reduces to about 4.5.- The snot valve does
GUSH air when opened after cruise if it has been left in (i.e., it works).
=0A-=0AI disassembled the pop-off valve on the firewall and removed the s
pring - looked fine, but I am not sure if it is the right one and have no i
dea how to verify if it is the correct size spring.- Also, there were 3 l
ittle round washers at the bottom of the spring - almost as if they were in
there for spacing purposes.- Is this normal?=0A-=0ASo...I am at a loss
as to what to do.- We have tried to adjust the nut on the pop-off valve
but can't seem to dial it in to pop at the right pressure (I presume the op
timal pressure to pop would be 5.5).- =0A-=0AAny ideas?=0A=0AJohn P. Gr

I use the Clarity Aloft very light headset in my Yak 50. I own a Bose headset,
David Clarks, Telexes, and have used a host of others, with and without aerobatic
helmets. The Clarity Alofts are the best. Once you get the earbud fit right,
they are as quiet as the best ANR headsets. They weigh nothing and their wireframe
holds them on through all negative and positive maneuvers.
They also facilitate cooling.
They take up about as much space as a pair of sunglasses, so you can wear them
inside a helmet.

I've got my Yak 52 at the Middleton airport. I'm willing to show it to your buddy,
we can work out a time.
