Group,
I was offered the rights and data by Termikas to build the TDs over here for
$100,000, last August. Who wants to pony up? : ) Parts and labor are

Subject: | loss of main air |
Hello,
I have replaced my main air valve and flap handle valve recently. No
issues immediately thereafter. Air system behaved normally.
A month later, and three flights in a row, I have not been able to generate
over 30 bars. It just stays there. When I land, I bleed off an additional
five with flaps and brakes etc. With the engine off and Main air open, I
use an external tank to fill to 50 bars. I hear no hissing whatsoever.
Also of note, my snot valve after landing has little to no pressure. Goo
just slowly drips/oozes out.
Any thoughts on where to start?
Thanks,
Phil Nicholson

Phil,
Check:
1. Remove the needle valve from your snot valve, it is probably rusty
and your pump cannot keep up with the leak.
2. If not the above check the alu crush washers on the banjo fitting on
the compressor. we have a kit for that..........
3. Check the line going from the compressor to the snot valve for cracks.
Give me a call if I can help, but my money is on #1.

Check the spring on your snot valve , make sure it is holding the valve
fully closed.

Phil=2C
You are going to receive a plethora of responses to this question=2C but...
just out of curiosity=2C have you checked the condition of your in-line air
filter? Are you confident your compressor is producing air? The massive le
ak w/ no audible hiss is one thing=2C but stagnant pressure gauge / minimal
release from the snot pot would seem to indicate the possibility that litt
le to no air is 1) being generated=2C or 2) is not allowed to pass to the b
ottle due to a blockage.
Just my $.02. GOOD LUCK as I have spent oodles of hours on this exact issue
. Please feel free to contact me directly=2C or on-list any time!

Subject: | Re: loss of main air |
I would start with your snot valve. It may be leaking. I found that the
snot valve in the belly can also leak, and not allow the system to build
pressure. I had the problem and could not hear any leaking.
If that doesn't do it then its a slow process of elimination. Attach a
scuba bottle, with the main air valve closed, and make sure you can hear
the pop off valve fart at the desired pressure, mine is set at 40 bar since
I don't like pushing my air bottles. Then it's a matter of soapy water on
all the joints, and look for the leak.

[quote="dougsappllc(at)gmail.com"]Scott/Byron,I have a brand new T-30, still in
the box, I bought 5, used 4 of them in other aircraft. Am tired of looking at
this one setting on my desk. Retail $160.00 I think. First $110.00 takes it.

Hi Doug, if not sold I will be interested if convenient for CJ6 and Housai

Subject: | loss of main air |
If You are losing air from the compressor to the snot valve=2C you need to
look for a leak starting at the banjo fitting=2C flare fittings at both end
s of your steel line and or your check valve leaving your compressor that c
an be plugged up. Any one or a combination of the above mentioned has to be
the problem if otherwise your system is holding pressure.
Good luck=2C Mike
