DHMO for cleaning off bugs by
Jon Woellhaf
After a short 1.5 hour sightseeing flight today I tried using 100% DHMO to
clean the bugs off the leading edges. It worked surprisingly well. Despite
my precautions, I got a little in my eyes and a lot on my hands and arms,
but I haven't noticed any adverse effects yet.

Can anyone recommend a source to replace the erratic Tach in our 79
