I went to the Army /Navy Surplus store and purchased a full face mask and have converted it to a positive flow system. I hook it up to my oilless compressor...

I was also told when breaking in an O-470 to never pull the prop back past 1500 rpm during the runup. I seem to remember the engine shop telling me going...
This is ultra common. Two causes. Not enough RPM (run it up to 2000). Then pull the governor lever back gradually (WATCH OIL PRESSURE). The governor line...

... It is quite likely that you simply didn't have enough rpm. The prop governor tries to adjust the prop pitch to hold the commanded rpm. I'm not sure what...
Hi all, I was trolling thru the old pics and noticed something I just gotta have on my -8QB... manual elevator trim, but ditching the factory vernier control...

drill out the large hole to an4, leave the others alone, the edge distance and the head/nut clearance should be ok but check to make sure. Paul Schattauer ...
Tony, I'm not structural engineer, but here's my opinion... 1.You could use the AN3 bolt anyway, but I would not, I would not like the slop, the bolt will not...
Hi All, I just wanted to introduce myself since I'm joining this group. I'm not building an RV-8, but want to start one in the next 2 - 3 years. However, I...
I used both (ice and WD-40) and I found that the first ones (when they were really cold) were super hard to put in, but the last ones went in easily (when they...

Greetings... Today I ran my engine for the first time. Everything went well except for one problem. I could not get the prop to change pitch. The engine is an...
Thanks for the reply Kevin. I'm with you on the cooling methods... will probably just lubricate them well and worry them in. More than likely, it will be a non...
The only thing I would worry about is the direction not to run the wires too close to the coils. I ran mine under the engine because my coils were on top. I...
