Subject: | Re: CJ6 Landing Gear Handle Leak |
Up date on the leak. I have tested all three gear actuators per Doug's
instructions and they are not leaking. I did notice a small amount of air
leaking from the gear RETRACTION hoses that attach to the actuators. All
three have air flowing thru them. How is that possible? The front pit
gear handle is down & the rear is in the neutral position & air is still
leaking from the front pit valve. I am at my wits end & would appreciate
more advice. Thanks.
