Hello,
I say, no need for a shut-off valve in the smoke oil line. I had one fitted but
removed it for max oil flow. Works just as well like that : Switch pump on -
smoke. Switch pump off - no smoke. Its the KISS approach ...........
Cheers
Vic

Troops,
Some times a problem has the simplest answer. I=99ve been having a
problem
with my smoke system for about a year. I didn=99t use it a lot beca
use it
dirtied up the bottom of my CJ so I was in no hurry to really fix it. But
lately with the sequestration, my co-hearts & I have been getting a lot of
request to do fly-bys for one function or another. Thus the need for smok
e
now, and I started looking into it.
At first I thought it was the pump that had finally crapped out. The pump
was a un-repairable red-tagged 24v fuel transfer pump whose bearings were
going bad. It was cheap (like free) and perfectly OK for the job. So I
got a brand new 24v pump. Same problem, very little flow out the exhaust
stacks. So than I checked the injectors in the exhaust stacks themselves,
figuring they might simply be clogged. I cleaned and made sure the holes
were
opened. Same problem. That left the electric shut off valve. I by
passed the valve with the hoses, and sure enough I had free flow! Ah Ha!
Must
be a bad 24v electric shut valve.
Now this valve was originally the oil delusion valve that came with the
airplane when I brought her some 18 years ago. The way I set up the wirin
g
was to open this valve when the pump was turned on. When I built my smoke
system (I am cheap) I left it in the same spot but put my smoke oil plumin
g
though it.
That=99s when I came to the Yaklist to seek out a substitute. Howev
er it
turned out that Dough Sapp had a brand new original delusion valve in stoc
k,
which I bought. Not cheap (free is perfect) but definitely reasonable.
Soooooo yesterday as I remove the old valve from the front firewall, I fou
nd
that the cannon plug for its power was NOT HOOKED UP! As a matter of fact
I at first I could not even find it! So I got out the flash light and
after a peering around in the area between the 1st & 2nd firewalls, I fou
nd it
wrapped around some of the airlines. That must have happen in my little
acro routines. Boy! Did I feel stupid. But as my wife (a retired social
worker ) says =9CHoney, think of it as a "learning experience"
=9D. Well now I
have a new pump, and a new shutoff valve. And I got a lot of suggestions
from a lot of caring folks on this list. But perhaps I could have gotten
another 18 years on the system IF I had just look a little deeper. Yes I
=99m
still a CASOB.
KISS

| Subject: | Looking for some An-2 help |
Someone over at Warbird Information Exchange suggested that you folks were good
with any of the old "commie" birds....
We recently got a rebuilt Shvetsov for our An-2.
Unfortunately, nobody took pictures when they took the old engine off or remembers
how everything goes back together (this was several years ago) and the manuals
are written in poorly translated Polish. I've been all over trying to find
pictures or a better set of manuals with no luck. We're currently stuck trying
to figure out the primer line setup, which has to happen before the fire seal
and engine mount can be installed.
Any Antonov folks on the board with pictures of the engine accessory section that
we could use for reference?

Our mechanic Vladimir out of KRNM is very familiar with An-2's. He ferried
one from Mother Russia to the States back in the day. Email me at
dicepilot@yahoo.com for his info.
