    Subject: 912s oil priming.
    --> Zenith-List message posted by: Dabusmith@aol.com list: I am planning to run my 912s for the first time tomorrow. I am concerned about possible air in the oil lines. Should I feel confident if I get good oil pressure (30 psi) on the starter with the upper plugs removed and the mags off per the manual? FWIW. I mounted my 12.5 LB battery on the right side of the fuselage even with the access panel. I added 1.5 LB of weight and .5 LB tail skid l to put CG at optimum position. I don't have the figures but, 1/4 to 1/3 aft in CG range has been recommended. The A/C is painted. Dave Smith Graham, WA. N701XL Almost ready to start taxiing around and schedule inspection.

    --> Zenith-List message posted by: "CHUCK KELLY" <heavy707@comcast.net> Yes it has been slow. I notice you have plans. Are you going to build from scratch? If so have you calculated about what it will cost for materials as oppose to the cost of a kit?

    Subject: Re: fuel sender - 701 fuel tank
    --> Zenith-List message posted by: Gary Gower <ggower_99@yahoo.com> Hi Hap, I will make this comment on the fuel sender, we had no problem with the movement but to have the sender go (complete) to full and empty in the instrument, so we choosed to have them mark exactly in the empty side of the instrument... when full we will be able to check it fisically (eyes) when tanks get full. We tried several positions on the float and couldnt get it to mark the complete range exactly. I know is not what you asked, but might help you and others, also any comments will be welcomed, but our wings are finished so I cant do anything so forth... The error was minor (divide the 1/4 of the tank mark in 3 or 4 parts and was one), but we new it was there. Saludos Gary Gower. --- "H.

    Subject: Gear build sequence
    From: David Tellet <telletdl@erols.com>
    --> Zenith-List message posted by: David Tellet <telletdl@erols.com> Since it is a bit quiet, I'll ask a stupid (maybe) question: At what point have the rest of you drilled and fitted the wheel forks to the gear legs on the 601HD/HDS? I've moved my center section off my table, but now I'm thinking that if I don't do it now, I'll have to do it later on my back with the fuse propped up. On the other hand, I'd rather do it later when the rest of the fuselage is setting straight and true. Any comments? Thanks in advance. David Tellet, 601HD, ~50% done

David, I didn't put a drill to the forks until the fuselage was nearly ready for the engine. Being able to wire behind the panel and place the header tank, pedals etc is just a lot better with it nearer the floor. The important part of drilling the forks is just inking thru the gear plates after you've found fork alignment. Larry - 601hds @ www.macsmachine.com

    Subject: [Please Read] SPAM Filter Could Be Causing Posting Problems
    For Some Members...? --> Zenith-List message posted by: Matt Dralle <dralle@matronics.com> Dear Listers, Matronics is now utilizing a SPAM filter appliance to filter out the excessive amounts of inappropriate email that bombards the Email List Forums each day. The filter is reporting that over 66% of the email messages sent to Matronics email destinations are of SPAM content and reviewing the logfiles, it would appear to be true. That is indeed great! While the Lists are enjoying the breath of fresh air afforded by the new appliance, I am suspecting that a few legitimate email List posts are being blocked as too, although I can't confirm this. It is difficult to churn through the logfiles looking though thousands of blocked email messages trying to determine if any legitimate List posts were blocked. If you suspect that your posts are accidently being blocked by the SPAM filter appliance, I have created a new Trouble Report web page that will allow you to report your problems directly to me without having to use email. If the SPAM filter is blocking your email address for some reason, then its likely that I wouldn't be able to receive your direct email regarding difficulty in posting. The web form bypasses the incoming email and directs your message directly to me. Please include as much information as possible regarding the problems you are having including any bounced email or email error messages that you may have received back in regard to your posts to the lists. The more information I have about the email you are sending and what the errors you are receiving, the better chance I'll have in hunting down the problem. The Trouble Report Website URL is: http://www.matronics.com/trouble-report/ I apologize for any inconvenience the SPAM filter may be causing you. I will work toward resolving your issues as quickly as possible.
