Subject: Housai engine and M-14P parts wanted
From: Jay McIntyre <cjaviator@gmail.com>      
      Hi all...
      I am in the market for a good 285HP Housai.
      All offers will be considered but ideally the engine will be 1st or second
      life.
      It will need to be shipped to New Zealand.
      
      Also in the market for a serviceable M-14P accessory section. We don't
      require magnetos and so forth, just an otherwise complete section.
      
      Please contact me off line at cjaviator@gmail.com
      
      Regards, Jay
      New Zealand

Subject: Nose Strut Pressure
From: Ernest Martinez <erniel29@gmail.com>      
      I need to confirm the nose strut pressure for a CJ. For some reason my nose
      strut is at maximum extension and I can't get it to stay down. I don't
      recall it always being like this. I noticed it after dropping the plane off
      the jacks.
      
      First question: What can cause the nose strut to hyper extend without
      adding any additional pressure? I have the schrader valve mod and I
      depressed it momentarily and I got hydro oil out.
      Second question: The manual states 2 MPa, I calculate this to be ~290 PSI,
      is this correct?
      Third Question" Whats the best way to release the pressure? add the oil,
      and then add nitrogen? I know how the manual states, I want the easy way.
      Whats the normal extension length for the strut?
      
      On a completely different note. Whats the best tool to remove the Rear #6
      cyl spark plug, without removing the exhaust?
      
      Thanks
      
      Ernie

      Ernie,
      I am away from my manuals so I cannot answer your questions about the nose
      strut, except that it much easier to adjust the pressure if you have the
      special tool, but it is made for the stock strut fillers not Schraders.
      I'm sure with some adapters you could mod the tool to fit your Schraders.
      
      #6 spark plug is best removed with a #6 spark plug tool.   Russian and
      Chinese #6 plug tool are the same.  We carry the Chinese tool p/n 64411/43
      @$40.00 each.
      
      If I can be of help please contact me off list.
      
      Best,
      Doug

      You have to make up your mind about growing up and becoming a pilot. You
      can't do both.

      Thanks Doug,
      
      My last CJ didn't have the schraders, and I had the proper strut fill tool.
      I kinda need the spark plug wrench now. I was hoping for a Lowes or NAPA
      solution.
