Hi Guys,
My 601XL is having an O-200 on the front and since it came off a C150 it
does not have a mechanical fuel pump (different cam end).
Has anybody got any details of the HDS fuel system (which I understand
includes a header tank)? I plan on using two fuel pumps in series (ala
Corvair) and pump the wing tanks into the header tank. A diagram/photo would
be good.
Cheers
Peter

Hello Patric,
Sorry, I don't know the answer on your question. But concerning your
argument that a fiber nut is better because a bolt without a hole is
stronger then a bolt with a hole. I would agree that a bolt without a hole
is stronger than a bolt with a hole, but I also think that the hole only
affects the part of the bolt that doesn't matter. The hole in the bolt is
below the grip range of the bolt, so the load on the hole is only the
cotter pin.

Maarten

John, several years ago somebody came up with a good fix-- They took a
piece of half inch rod, drilled it slightly larger than the rivet stem,
cut it about half an inch long, and then ground a 30 to 40 degree flat
on one end. The idea was that you slip it on the rivet shaft with the
angled flat to the puller, ran the shaft into the riveter nose, and
pulled the rivet. The shaft then bends around the corner as you pull. I
made one, and it worked well.

Hi Kevin;
I found that with many of the rivets that are close in I
had to modify a hand riveter. I did this by grinding off the sides of
the rivetter so I could get in close. The rudder is one of many places
where the air riveter cannot get in close enough. I can send a picture
if this would help

Hi all ,
just riveting the rudder together and noticed I cant get the rivet
gun on the rivets for the upper hinge brackets, also I see people leave
them off until later but I cant find any reference to this.
How do you rivet these 2 parts on? plane says A5 rivets

Kev
