Advice needed, I'm trying to install a new exhaust system on my E-225. I can't seem to get the flanges started as if the exhaust are to narrow. Then the push...
I figured out how to reinstall an Exhaust system first start with the center stack that's the trick. I then got the rear flange started, just start the brass...
Others may differ but it's my feeling that the exhaust stacks should fit right. If they don't you're preloading a lot of hardware and there's already a big...
Bill: I think you're right. If it takes any kind of bending, tweaking or shoehorning to get the flanges to slip over the studs, you're just setting yourself up...
Dennis, if you need to ask on this group how to do a basic job, and what paperwork is involved, you are not qualified to do the job. Get on-site professional...

Thank you to all that have responded to my questions re guarding the installation of my new exhaust on my E-225. First I would like to say that I'm not an A&P...
Dennis: Six jugs in 42 hours? What were the circumstances? How much time was on them prior to your ownership? Was this a failure in pilot technique or in the...
Yeah... I'll admit I was one of the "coals dragger-over-ers." Not the right response. There are no stupid questions, just stupid people for not asking...
Robin I had purchased my plane with about 69 hours smoh the cylinders were yellow tagged by Gibson. When I replaced the rocker arm shafts the chrome was worn...
My A model has the standard style panel but I would like to add a glare shield while I'm doing some instrument updates. Has anyone added a glare shield? How...
Hi Lonnie, We made a new glareshield out of fibre glass sheet covered with foam and ultra-leather. Make it deep enough to keep the instrument light glare off...
The original and modified exhaust for the E engines is not a straight slip on affair whatever your license or ability...IA,A&P, owner, and thus the slip joint;...
I use soft aluminum tubing to start. You can slit it with a Dermal cutting wheel. Make a jig from a block of wood with a hole for the tube and a slot for the...
I am need of some advice/suggestions. N4808K is leaking oil out the accessory case. While it is difficult to determine the exact source, It appears much of it...
Oil leaks are always a pain to find and fix (IMHO). I just figure it's the way I know if there is oil in the engine. If it stops leaking I should start...

My plane came equipped with a 50 Amp Skytronics (Jasco) alternator on the E-225. It's STC'd for the Navion A and you can get info about installation etc. on...
Thanks Greg, I just ordered a fiberglass glare shield from Deluca. It will save the time from measuring and cutting, he has a lip under the shield for light so...
I seem to remember that someone makes a new and improved seal (o-ring)for the connection between the oil tank and the case on a E-225. If that is true does...
Tom, we replaced the 2 orings 3 weeks ago which fit between the oil cooler and case. I don't recall the size, but it stopped a significant leak. We had...
Thanks Lonnie I will call Tom Deluca and get the new and improved seal. I know for sure that that is where the leak is coming from, I tracked down using oil...
Tom, I'll have to try the dye, never knew it existed, I have been using powder to show leaks. I have oil just under the accessory case on the oil tank, is ...
I can see the oil leaking from the seals on top of the oil tank and was also able to identify it by using an oil leak detection dye and UV light. I know that...
