Subject: | gill shutter anti-chafe strip |
Around the gill shutter ring is an anti-chafing strip that (having discusse
d it with Doug Sapp) is secured by the plates riveted to the ring. So it's
not a separate, replaceable part.
My gill shutters are in fabulous shape. My anti-chafing strip is not.
Anybody got any ideas for replacing it with some kind of modern material an
d glue that would hold up?
Jon

Jon-
I used some felt strip (2x120=9D, 3/16=9D thick) from Grainger (
Item #2FJB9) and Polycord waxed thread (.030) from www.mainethread.com. and m
y better half sewed it on. Works fine but one corner needs re-sewing, but a
fraid to tell wife her work was sub par, ha, ha!=F0=9F=98=85 so it=99s
flapping around a little on one end, but only on a cowl off engine run - Ho
