Pietenpol-List: Continental engine cooling eyebrow drawings--inexpensive!
RE: Pietenpol-List: Engine Push Rod Length

Michael, that expensive overhaul manual you bought should have a Table ofLimits in it. You'll find the information you need there.>From looking at mine, I find that the pushrods (new) should have a length of10.797" to 10.827". The serviceable limit length is 10.785"To determine if you need the oversize pushrods, you will have to have theengine assembled, and measure the clearance between the valve stem and therocker arm, with the hydraulic lifter fully deflated. The clearance issupposed to be between 0.030" and 0.110". If your clearance is more than0.110" you will need the longer pushrod.Jack PhillipsNX899JPSmith Mountain Lake, Virginia _____

Hello good Piet-ple...A week ago I had Mike from "Ready Weld" come by for another all-day welding marathon.He worked on the pilot and passenger control sticks, the passenger door(heaven forbid!!), the tabs where the wood floor will bolt to the fuselage frame,and the attach fittings for the seat belts & shoulder harnesses. I have attached (hopefully) an image of the fuselage with the tabs jigged in place,a picture of the door in the wooden jig, Mike welding away, and a coupleof the fuselage which is now further along. Put it together, jig, take it apart, put it back together, take it back apart...repeat until finished (ha!) Lotsa funnn...!!--------Jake Schultz - curator,Newport Way Air Museum (OK, it's just my home)Read this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ttachments: http://forums.matronics.com//files/4_pi ... ___Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Continental engine cooling eyebrow drawings--inexpensive!
