Hi Guys, Our little e-mail group has been way too quiet lately. I hope everyone's engine isn't in storage or suffering from the recession. Could everyone...
I have a variEze that I am resurrecting. I have a low time O-200 with high compression pistons awaiting installation. I hope to be in the air by the end of...
Sam, When I get it done, I will have the oldest flying Wittman W-8, s/n 25. I am using a Rattray cowl - tight fit to bottom of O200. I wanted to keep the cowl...
Great work on the oil sump, Al. I made mine out of carbon fiber, but am nail-biting the results. I have Ly-Con pistons in my O-200. I used then because I...
Thanks Sam, for the reminder - I don´t have the Q-200, only the engine - on my little aerobatic project (www.acro100.de) - still working on the airframe and...

Try putting a 12 or 18" temorary extention on the pipe and see if your readings change. With a wide band you can graph the A/F ratio and compensate for air but...
I added a 8" extension to the pipe, which was all I could lay my hands on right now. The mixture meter is definitely working better. Before, the mixture meter...
Sam, I wouldn't let the oxygen sensor thing slow you down. You can get this tuned and flying without it. Although an oxygen sensor makes the process quicker...

Bart, I was advised to remove the pistons BEFORE separating the cases. If I separate the cases witht he pistons still attached, will the case halfs go over the...
Ron, Yes remove the piston and rod before separating the case by disconnecting the rod from crank. You really may want to See if you can find someone with good...
Wrist pins are full floating which means that they slide into the piston and rod with no pressing. Over time they sometimes get a little varnish which makes...
As you may know I'm rebuilding my 0-200A engine. Well the crankshaft is toast... cracks found in magnafluxing. So, does anybody have a lead on a good...
