    I typically use Stoddard solvent for general cleaning when a petroleum product is involved, tho the Chinese Maint Manual instructs to use avgas then air for cleaning the oil screens.

    TWs had no vanes on the front and have electric and air start. The back of the cowl has flaps that control airflow by opening or closing the outflow. Marginal effectiveness and other cooling issues with Oil and CHT were problems on TW. Happy to talk if you want to directly.

    Subject: Re: Oil change
    Yes. I=99m sure Stoddard is the same as Varsol. It will not evapora te and leave dirt on the part like gas and is much safer. Of course it is a flammable fluid and should be treated as such, for exampl e disconnecting the battery, removing trouble lights, etc. or any potential ignition source particularly when using a spray gun. Stay safe.

    Subject: Yak 52 Exhaust
    From: "Snazpappy" <snazman1@hotmail.com>
    I get a lot of leaks from my exhaust joints on Yak 52tw. Instead of the stainless steel shims would there be a problem with wrapping the joint with exhaust pipe fiberglass wrap,then put the exhaust donut on top and fasten with the exhaust clamp? Also does anyone know what kind of temperatures that the exhaust pipes can reach? Thanks Snaz Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=488056#488056
