Not fishing, just being realistic as there will never be a single meet given the
wide distribution of our locations. I expect to run the same course as everyone
else. It's not just side x side speed. Skill in sharp pilotage and pylon turning
can shave seconds off a short 12NM course anyway.
This could be a fun thing that fills in some open holes in the schedule and any
pilot can do it. Formation rating not required.

| Subject: | Re: Ignition Harness Kit |
All,
To answer the questions about the kit....
We use 8.5mm wire that has 40-50 ohms resistance on a 12" wire, which is the lowest
resistance of any helically wound wire. It also has extremely effective
EMI choke. We have not found a wire better than this for this application. Other
set ups that we are familiar with have caused ignition problems.
As previously mentioned, the iridium plugs are actually cheap. The ones we use
have the correct reach for optimal combustion.
The kits include wires precut to length (~70' total) with the wires installed into
the mag caps on one end and boots on the other end, machined wire bracket
to neatly close off magneto and keep moisture/oil out, clamps for mounting, a
full set of spark plugs, and installation instructions. It is designed to be
"plug and play," pardon the pun.
Hope this helps...
Happy Flying!
Barry

We don't have an adapter tool, but we do have machined stainless steel adapters
that convert your struts over to Schrader valves. Please contact me off list
for pricing and pics. They are a simple screw in replacement and eliminate the
possibility of loosing/breaking an external adapter tool.
Happy Flying!

Remove the prop dome and piston assembly. If there is oil
inside the hub, the inner seal on the piston is bad (possibly
incorrectly installed too) OR the seal behind the oil tube is bad or the
tube is not fully tightened. Most likely it's the inner seal on the
piston if there is oil pooling inside the hub. If the piston outer seal
is leaking, there will be oil on the inside of the "skull cap" dome. As
Mark says, check the front seal on the nose case to see if there is
evidence of oil around the prop hub/flange shaft.

I think you have an M-14 with a two blade V-530 hub
correct? If so...
Depends on exactly what you mean by hub seals. The ones
on the prop
blades are there to keep the grease in. If there is OIL
coming out of
THOSE prop blade flanges, it is not a bad Hub Blade seal
that is the
problem. It's one of the OTHER ones.
If we are talking OIL, there are usually three areas of
concern.
1. The large and small o'ring seals for the hub piston
(you take the
front hub cover off to get at these)
2. The oil control tube crush washer. This is the PIPE
that screws
into the front of the engine that the oil goes through
to get to the hub
and control the prop. This has a crush washer on the
front that leaks
and ends up coming out the prop area.
3. The shaft seal on the reduction gearbox...that is
NOT easy to
change, but does not usually go bad unless you're doing
serious acro.
You're going to have to determine exactly where the oil
is coming from.
That has been my experience... Others better versed
probably have more
accurate advice. I am by no means a prop expert.

Yes, Fly Navy.from deep blue postage stamp to deep blue postage stamp all
the while sleeping with a bunch of guys in a closet. I prefer my runways
long and stable not moving all the while trying to kill me. I prefer my
linens clean and cool in MY Q room not warm and freshly slept in. I prefer
to have a cold beer at the end of a Sierra Hotel sortie not having to wait
until the boat slides into her port of call a month after that Shit Hot
