I'd be more interested on the threads of the set screw to see if he used loctite. Can't quite tell in the other picture of its green loctite or oil.

I don't know why but I read it as spring and pin. Not spring pin. The original part was a roll pin that went through the case. That hole for the roll pin was drilled out and tapped for a 3/16 long 10/32 set screw. I honestly like the sound of a roll pin better. But that obviously didn't work...

Somewhere there's a public school teacher that would be proud....or surprised.

Did they bring a cake shake from Portillos?

Jesus, I thought you were just speaking in hyperbole about the author. Nope.

Next fly in.... A POA habitat for humanity amalgamation

I agree it should be enough to keep it from turning provided it can't back out. And it does look like they failed to stake it per the SI. I'm just not convinced a better stake would have prevented this. With the type of set screw they they used it really wouldn't take much to back out enough to...

Eci cylinder ad is the first that comes to mind.

At the rate this self serve world is going, don't be surprised if they make you put the mayo on yourself when you do get that sandwich

Rode a Boeing twice today and nothing eventful happened

Early 180 with the butterfly cowl. So much easier to look at things. Beautiful

Have had nothing but good experiences with Steve at Poplar Grove. It might help that my A&P has more of a rapport being so close. They put new valves and seats in one of my cylinders last year and was about 2 weeks. My A&P found a thumbnail size chunk of aluminum in the suction screen of dad's...

I had heard that as well about the electro air. And not just the dual mag. I originally thought it was the install, but too many issues I think
