On my first attempt at take off the higher vacuum generated plus the heat in the engine compartment caused the radiator hose to collapse. I changed it to fiberglass and have not had a problem since.

Met a really nice farmer. Problem was the fuel filter - small one from Aircraft Spruce. I would change the filter or try a bigger one, and try again....Fred N9601 (sold) Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=299153#299153 ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 01:19:52 PM PST US Subject: Zenith601-List: Re: Aileron Stop after Mod From: "chris Sinfield" well if there is a new stop designed, can someone with the latest version of the plans ( 650 I guess) scan in the aileron stop so we all can see how it is done? size wise / thickness?

I have the 3 nose ribs and following the Zenith photo guide becomes confusing here as their plane has the 4 nose ribs and so the photos don't match the plans. With nose rib No 1 it would have been great if they could have put a top down view as they do in nose rib 2. What happens to the row of rivet holes through the original spar web at the back of the spar? The nose rib 1 bracket is riveted on to the new .125 tho plate. Are we to rivet a plate over the old holes or just leave them open?? Can someone shoot a couple of pictures of this area Front and Back of what this nose rib 1 area is supposed to look like please. also I put it in, but why the bottom spar angle between 1 and 2 ribs? Have we had buckling in that area, and why not a full piece between 1 and 3 as you could still get an access panel hole if it was extended..
