Thanx again george, so just unscrew, count the turns, scre and safetywire. no problems inside the bowl. Thanx, thanx.

George, now you can see how a person can be addict to this site!!!. I thought on using AN bolts and nuts, the ones that fit, but since have none of them here, i have to order new a US dealer. I was just looking for types and measures. Knew you were abouto reply when i see you online at the first pag...

Want to replace the bolt and nuts of my mufflers, pancake style,have them of all colours, which are the correct ones?

Some days ago i took out all the car gas my plane had, it sitted there for 3 month, now i want to drain the carburetor for the remaining car gas inside it. just for precaution. Do i just have to unscrew the little screw it has in the bottom and then put it again and wire it? Any advice? Can i damage...

Thanx!!! and the fabric (?) type stuff sorruounding some of those baffling, what is the name for that?

Can anyone explain me what is exactly the baffling. (im looking for improve my avaition vocabulary). Saludos

koop, i bought the plane in 2001, and when doing the trip from buenos aires to my town in patagonia something happened in the middle that i wont forget in my life. Im not an expert in 170 or taildraggers, before buying the 70 i did 30 hours in nice pa11 a year before buying the plane. The rest 172 a...

Thank for the info george!. Using that means to take out the rockers and the pushrod tubes, does it? Because i never did that before. Another thing, When i changed some valve cover gaskets, noticed that there was some kinda sealer, burned!, around the pushrod tube, but in the inner part of the rocke...

Seems that my c-145 is going to leak some more time. The only things i was suggested to do is to put some sealer on the pushrod tubes in the out part of the rocker box. How many hours that would help.

Very interesting posts here. I learn a lot with all of you!!! You will be amazed of the amount of checklist available in argentina, i think 1 per pilot. :? Of course most pilots/owners dont have the source for that kinda information, or dont want to search, as we see there a places like this with pl...

Mike, read bruce post on the member issues--> editing profile, it helped me vry well on the same issue.

Im with the doubt too susan, i really like the polished look, but i know that will be better for my project of doing bush flyin in patagonia in the next years have it painted (with a good paint job). Other problem i have is that now my job is getting all my time, and i dont have much time for flying...

Think you´re right bruce, those low wings may be hard to convert. Luckily cessnas seem to be easier, and are prettier. But apart from 172 and 182 dont know if other single cessna worth the convertion.

Some days ago i saw in internet a pa28 180 tailwheeled, realy really, nice. Do you know if tailwheeling a nosedragger is a lot of work? It would be nice to start doing that here in argentina. And 172 taildraggers deserve to be called (as i´ve seen here in the forum) 170 C!!!!! Because they´re pret...

Pic arrived fine, but saw it just for few seconds, then closed window. Kidding, look knida rare with that round tail, but the rest, is a 172, like the one i flew in my private course.
