Putting that in a Tiger ????????.
It looks like the rubber may have been inserted into a metal sleeve which was pressed into the aluminum housing. Perhaps cut off the rubber on one end and dig out the rest of it with a scredriver or...
You can probably have the motor rewound for way less than the cost of a new one.
Has no one taken into account what the screen clutter is going to look like with all these N numbers grouped together on the screen is going to look like ????. It is one giant blob of targets on my...
Add a small personal locator beacon and a small strobe light.
A lot of the problems I saw this year could be solved by the pilots following the Notam. Not flying past other aircraft between Ripon and Fisk. Get in line as we all should. Between Ripon and Fiske...
We lost 4 pilots and planes at our airport due to it.
Look on harbor freight. I know they sell the smaller bottles maybe they sell the larger ones.
I would use a good Zinc Chromate Epoxy primer.
On Monday I observed numerous pilots flying in a reckless and dangerous manner seemingly with severe cases of get there ittus. Just had to be first !!! These pilots endangered themselves and others...

If you have concerns and the nut plate cannott easily be replaced you could always add a drop of low strength Locktite to the fastener for insurance.
I would think you would have to replace the rear bulkhead and attach brackets. Should not be that hard to do.
Pull the plugs and roll it over until the oil pressure comes up. Mixture and throttle closed of course. Reinstall plugs and start as normal. Allow to warm up well before doing a mag check and then...
The vent line on the tank that is emptying is plugged. Mud dauber would be my guess. Check the tank vents. If the caps have vents check those as well or just replace the tank caps. Problem...
