up case of Mineral oil from AeroZona, Added oil to engine case, and calibrated dipstick, The old on was quite a bit off, filed and |
|
sanded off the old markings and used a file to make notches at the 12 and 9 qt level. when I change oil, I'll add 6 & 3 qt marks. |

Put everything back on the plane that needed to be where it was prior to Wade coming over Monday am, with his scales to |

weight the plane. He's got a Great set of Scales, We set them up, calibrated them, rolled the plane up on them, and let air out of |
|
the nose wheel until the plane wa level and Walla! A Chunky Monkey was Born, N519PJ weight in 2 1772 ! I was ecpecting |
|
1700, but this was a bit more than I was hoping for, proof posative that all of the extras and mods do indeed add up. the next |
|
item was to find out what was going on with the roll servo, When Bill DeR. came by we noted it wasn't working. I had to uninstall |
|
the servo motor from the bracket in order to get the Dsub unscrewde from the servo. Once it was out I made a long harness and |
|
disconnected the 25 pin dsub from the Trutrak programmer in the cockpit, and began doing continuity checks and pn checks, |
|
and sure enough I had 3 of the pins in the wrong location. once reinstalled I rechecked the servo, and everything seems to be |
|
working and the servo appears to be operating in the right direction. |
