Have the specs changed too? Be pretty sad if its even 5% under what they were boasting.

I'm 40 this year: Never had a car payment. Never spent more than $3500 on a car. Largest repair I've ever paid for was about $1200 after I fried a BCM by doing something stupid to it. Second largest repairs are buying sets of tires. I did borrow my Dad's 1998 Lumina about 14 months, after my...

I'd find an engine and airframe parts manual and just start googling and ebay searching part numbers and studying pictures.

Any EV start a hospital parking garage on fire yet? Any apartment parking garages? i wonder how many have anything resembling realistic fire prevention and fire fighting provisions in them. Maybe we can finally get realistic parking? Parking cars in standard sized stalls is a freaking fire...

While that is true there may be a hidden AHRS inside the GMC507 Controller

Download the GFC500 Instructions for Continued Airworthiness and read it, may give you an idea what to look for.

Where are you located?

Would not be surprised if there was a mismatch of bolt hole sizes between the alternator and the engine. Is this the consequence of a botched generator to alternator conversion? You may need new bolt to fit the alternator and new brackets too. My alternator bracket has no spacers added...

Can't complain. I do all the maintenance so far. Replaced al the spark plugs, a starter (it was still going just wanted to see what all the fuss was about), an alternator, one complete brake job, fixed a broken door in the HVAC box and almost all of it was done with no assistance and one-handed.

Seems early to need a battery, is something draining it?

I'm an option 1 guy but I'm a mechanic so I have near complete control over the final product. I once received 4 brand new cylinder kits and visually inspected them before the UPS truck drove away. Two of of the four already had corroded barrels, the retailer replaced them at no cost but it was...

When they receive the core what are the chances of getting upcharges for it? What else needs to be done at the same time? Engine hoses? Engine Mount (steel structure)? Rubber Engine Mounts? Mixture, Prop, Throttle Control cables? Is the oil cooler good? Prop good? Exhaust good? Baffles good...

They work. Must be trimmed, fit, drilled, and match painted. Cessna kinda screwed the pooch IMHO, they were the ones that used non-standard lighting mounting on the wingtips in the first place.

I've went to GP (small office) for abdominal pain, x-ray didn't do much. Took blood wont have result till later. I went to work (desk job). Get home and at about 5:30pm I get a call "your white count is really high go to the ER" I pack mystuff and went to ER (big hospital with trauma unit and...

My 55 year old O320 with original cylinders would go about 7 hrs a quart but it did seem to hover around 5.5 quarts a lot better than 6 to 8.

Well.. some of the same _________ that have been ignoring any sort of preventative action for 30+ years are now being tasked to actually look. VS (not the same airplane)

Look like the nuts that came with the unit IMHO, just old an corroded. The case of the starter doesn't look any better.

Cushions - The black ones offgas when heated and stain the wires with black gunk. The aluminum bands are way more rigid than necessary IMHO. The blue ones reportedly get sticky. That from a 15-year veteran full time turbine guy that hates them. I've had white silicone ones, that came with an...

AThis Lycoming lifter is 55 years old with 2000 hours on it, and it was the worst one in the engine. Cam wasn't terrible ether. Parallel valve 150 horse. Never used camgaurd or any special preservation since we have owed it (20 years). Wasn't making metal just low compressions so it was time to...
