Guys, does anyone have dimensions for the transport dollies used to move a

wing fittings... THANX!

Subject: Yak-List: Noise and capacitor kit on magnetos
Good day to all
I have changed the harness with ann automotive kit on my 52. I have now
noise in my radio at a point where it makes it difficult to fly with such
noise in the ears.
So I have bought a capacitor kit for the magnetos. Unfortunately I do not
understand well how to set it on the M14P magnetos.
Doeas anyone have a detailled explanation on how to set this kit up
please.
Thanks a lot for any advice
Best regards

There is a Yak expert in Eagle River, WI that just might have a set of
false undercarriages available. I know that many,many years ago they
used to import and assemble Yak 52's. The original owner, Carl Schels
retired. But I think his underling is now running the shop. I just
don't remember his name (it's an age thing) :-)

Jay,
Most US aircraft have a *stainless steel* control box on the fire wall not
only to control the flow of hot air but to prevent smoke in the cockpit in
case of a engine fire, as your SCAT hoses will go away pretty fast. A alum
box will do you little good in a engine fire situation, stainless is more
expensive but is the best/safest way to go IMHO.
Best.

Also true, but I'd rather have the cleanest air possible to breath while it
was burning through the firewall. Having a 2 inch hole to let the smoke an
d
fire into the cockpit does not seem the best situation. Granted a 020 alu
box is better than nothing, just barely.
FYI there are a few CJ out there with stainless firewalls. The way my luck

Subject: | CJ6A - Cabin Heat/Air plumbing, diverter valves - do Yak |
52 18T or other parts work?
I upgrades mine with a =93Borasilca cloth=94 ? In any case it is the
fiberglass
type with an alum foil (heavy) on one side to keep the oil out. Shelby
Cobras and many of the Indy /
formula 1 race cars use it to keep the fiberglass body from melting /
catching fire. So far (6 + years) it has held up well.
But in my opinion if you want heat go with electric under garments
powered
from a 24 to 12 Vdc convertor. And do not put any holes through your
firewall.

=93box=94 so as to keep a continuous stream of cooling air blowing
through the
heater muff to prevent internal deterioration of the exhaust inside the
muff
and subsequent CO issues. It seems like the only proper position for
the
existing valve on the 18T SS heat muff is continuously open for cooling
air
-- then to a firewall mounted or inline diverter valve to vent unwanted
hot
air when not being used for cabin heat. The CJ=92s vent & heat tubes
are 40
mm (about 1 =BC inch; so 1 =BC or 1 =BD inch scat tubing should work).
The heater
boxes I have found online for RV and general aviation applications seem
to
use 2 inch ducting and are too big. There is plenty of room for a vent
shut
off valve behind the firewall but it would seem preferable to have the
heat/vent shut off controls on the engine side of the firewall for
obvious
reasons ' particularly for heat.
I would appreciate hearing from anyone who has tackled this.
It would seem possible to construct inline cable controlled diverter
valves
(small heat/vent boxes) out of aluminum sheet (or SS) but an off the
shelf
solution would be preferable.
The CJ parts manual (the standard 5 blue books) I have only shows the
version of the CJ with no heat/vent ducting at all at the baffle plates
and
firewall and is no help.
