Sam, I would suggest staying away from that type of moving equipment on the main gear legs. You are introducing a lot more weight than necessary, and a lot...
Sam, Automotive struts are pretty heavy and usually have some sort of forged steel end fitting. These are far too heavy for light aircraft. I have seen...

... This is heresy on a Soob group but since there are plenty of trikes flying with Geo/Suzuki engines and they are lighter than the Soob they may be a better...
Amit, you will need a reduction drive of some type. You will not get enough horsepower using the 2.2 as a direct drive. I don't recall the numbers that other...
The local hobby shop sells infra red heat measuring device for $25. You just point it at the oil pan and it tells you the temp. This seems like excellent way...
... I think it was NACA that found that a lump of oil in a given container doesn't much change temp regardless of what the container is made of. The cooling...

Has anyone figured out a good way to cut down and re-glue/weld/whatever the oil filler neck on the EJ series engines? Mine is just an inch too tall and is...
Hans: I have used JB Weld to glue mine back together. Eventually though I replace it with a new aluminum one that I had custom made. The original however has...
Thanks Del. We don't have JB weld here in Europe, but looking at their web site I gather it is epoxy-based. I'll experiment some with Epoxy. If it fails, I can...
This is what I did on my previous EJ engine. The filler neck on the EJ's IS on the valve cover. I put some rubber gasket between an alloy plate and the engine,...
I split the short section I removed, then used that as a sleeve over the cut line. I also used a drill bit to dimple the glue surfaces. That way you have a...

Glad to hear you finally received your NSI engine. We await your review of its performance once you get it installed. The EG33 also has a shorter oil fill tube...
I've already installed the EJ-25 unit, so photo is not needed. Thanks Ross. "Finally" is indeed the correct word here. It took them 11 months to ship it, and...

Fellas, Sorry for being a bit off topic, but: Can anyone supply some real facts as to wether or not it is ok to fill an airplane with gas from a plastic can....
Jeff, not off subject at all and a good question. If you carry gas in a plastic container and especially if you carry it in a truck with a plastic bed liner...
