Look in Part 30 of the CPS Proper care and feeding. The second to the last
paragraph in that section covers it. If you look at photo 9=2C you see th
e small bleed screw=2C it is centered betweed the two nuts in the picture a
nd directly accross from the fluid inlet on the oposite side of the engine.
The 532 doesn't have this bleed screw. This is especially important on a
n inverted engine like the Avid uses to get the air out. I hooked a long h
ose onto the lower hose fitting and filled it with oil=2C then held it up h
igher than the other fitting so oil and air would go back up into the bottl
e. Keep doing it till no more air comes out. Jim Chuk Kitfox 4 building
