The end of the crimp on the terminal looks flat like it was crimped with a vise or hammered. I would want to cut away the insulation and see if this crimping method cracked the terminal. Whenever I crimp any wire above 10 gauge, I like to use my hydraulic crimper which works a lot better and...

The LED lights were about $25. I did it myself.

Have you looked into the NanoVNA? Lots of capability for a lower cost.

Did anyone notice that some of the pictures had a different tail number?

I have a friend that has an Arrow IV there. He was paying about $315 a month and the hangar was gigantic compared to mine. Has electricity and concrete floors. I am sure that the hangar rate has gone up because that was about five years ago.

Your photo was of a Cessna and I did not realize that you have a Piper. Piper uses a lousy way to ground the overhead lights and uses a terminal over one of the machine screws that holds the console up. If your lights are not working or intermittent, try tightening all screws that hold the...

I replaced all the panel lights in my Warrior with LED lamps from SuperbrightLED. Great improvemnet!

My 430W requires me to enter the K first. I am not sure that I would change that since some of the smaller or private airfields do not require a K.

I had a friend with an Arrow IV with the battery box. He had a SAE connector wired to his battery terminals. The connector was zip tied to the door to fill the oil. The SAE connector is the same as is used on the Battery Minder.

I have had "proceed on course" before a few times typically after ATC has given you headings to take to avoid traffic or other reasons.

I have had a few transponder fails due to antenna crimps. If you still have RG-58 coaxial, I would have that replaced first and see if the problem goes away. Since you have a Trig 31, it may be using the same tray that you had with the 76A since they can all use that tray so you may have some...

I often use my Ingersol Rand air impact wrench for both removal and installation of lug nuts. The IR model that I have has an adjustable torque for both removing and tightening. I use full torque for removal and the lowest setting for tightening which gives you about 70 foot pounds torque...

My sockets were pristine impact deep sockets and I was using a breaker bar to remove the nuts. I believe that the problem is that the nuts were steel covered with a stainless steel cover. The inside steel on a couple of these appeared to have a lot of corrosion. I am guessing that the problem...

True. That's when your AAA card proves its value.

A bigger problem, if you own a recent Ford product, is swollen lug nuts. I ran into this when I tried to do a brake job on my Escape. About half of the lug nuts would no longer work with my 19mm socket. I was able to remove most of them with 20mm and 21mm sockets. Two of them required use of...

Here is a better way to deal with rusted on wheels: Loosen all the nuts on the wheel leaving about an 1/8" gap between the wheel and the nut then go for a drive. Hard braking, speed bumps at a moderate speed, and sharp turns will loosen the wheel without damage to the wheel.

I second the recommendation on the PMA 8000G. I love mine. The Bluetooth lets me play from XM radio without wires and I like the built-in USB jack.
