FS: several Piper parts (long) by
Jay Masino
I'm selling off some of my "stock" of spare parts that don't fit my
Cherokee. I inherited most of them from an airport "old timer" years ago,
and they've been sitting around ever since. I thought I'd give some of
the newsgroup people a chance to make an offer before I Ebay them. I'll...

Fuel dip stick for C182 w/long-range tanks? by
Mark Hansen
The club to which I belong has a 1978 Cessna R182 RG Skylane.
This airplane has the long-range tanks (80 gallons total, 75
gallons usable - both tanks).
I'm looking for a fuel dip stick that can be used with this
airplane. I found the following J-Air FuelHawk at My Pilot Sto

Fuel Dip Tube for Hershey-bar Wing Cherokees? by
Bob Chilcoat
I posted this question in the "Fuel dip tube for Piper Warrior?" thread, but
it seems to have gotten lost. Does anyone have dip tube data for the
straight-wing PA-28's, or are the fuel tanks the same as the taper-wing
versions? Thanks.

Fuel dip tube for Piper Warrior? by
TTA Cherokee Driver
Is there a fuel dip tube available for the Piper Warrior II
(specifically, pa28-161)? When I flew the 172 I used a fuelhawk dip
tube to measure how much fuel I had. In the warrior there are tabs in
each tank at 17 gals but other than that it seems like guesswork. I
sure would like to find a way...

Fuel Drip Containment by
Jim Weir
Snarly Charlie, the 182, has the classic "Cessna drip" from the fuel vent when
the tanks are filled and the hangar gets warm. I've tried everything I know to
stop it, but all I can do with all the mechanical fixes is slow it down.
I'm getting ready to patch the asphalt under the drip and paint...

Fuel economy help by
G.R. Patterson III
Just saw an article by AP. It seems that Auburn University has made a breakthrough
in fuel cell research. They now have a practical way of catalytically separating
the hydrogen from the carbon and sulphur in conventional fuels such as diesel.
When used in a vehicle equipped with a fuel cell, fuel...

Fuel Flow and Peak EGT by
Kobra
Flyers,
While flying to FL from NJ last week I did what I always do and fly ROP by
75 to 100 degrees. This is how I was trained and my CFII is also my A&P /
IA.
I know enough about LOP to know I will not operate LOP without an engine
analyzer and probably GAMI injectors which I do not yet...

Fuel Flow Monitoring by
EDR
* This is an outgrowth of the hot starting fuel injection thread
For those of you who have JPI or EDI fuel flow monitoring:
a) how many flights did you make before it was "calibrated"?
b) how much variance do you see from flight to flight?
b1) do you fly approximately the same altitudes/power...

Fuel Guages by
Mike Rapoport
I just bought a Helio Courier and the fuel guages (actually one guage with a
four position switch) don't work very well. Since different tanks seem to
work differently I assume that the problem is in the sender or the wiring.
Where should I start? does anybody know what the resistance range...

Fuel Injection and Variable Timing by

I was curious how much fuel injection and variable spark timing reduces fuel
consumption and increase power in an airplane engine. Auto engine data does
not help because auto engines are run over a wide range of conditions,
wereas an aviation engine typically runs at cruise power and can...

fuel leak or auxiliary fuel pump malfunction? by
[email protected]
From time to time pilots have observed fuel stains on the nosewheel
wheelpant of our club's 172SP. The only time I have actually seen fuel
dripping from the engine was when I watched a pilot turn the auxiliary
fuel pump on for what seemed to me to be an excessively long period of
time. The fuel...

Fuel Lube Preferences? by
Orval Fairbairn[_2_]
Anybody have any preferences between the clear fuel lube in a tube and
the older, tan, waxy type you get in a can?
I am about to service a poorly-accessible fuel selector valve and want
to use the longest-lasting stuff.

fuel monitor by
Tri-Pacer
I'm leaning towards installing a fuel flow monitor.
Either the JPI FS 450 or the Shadin Microflo-L Since I have only a 2 1/4
hole open I've kind of settled on one of these two.
Any comments pro or con?
Thanks

Fuel prices by
Paul kgyy
I saw an interesting presentation on C-span yesterday by an analyst
from Deutsche Bank. He made the following points.
1. Average prediction from multiple sources of oil prices: $60 for
2006, $40-50 after. Consensus is a 10% chance of future oil at $20,
also a 10% chance of $100.
2. The...

We just got a new load of fuel yesterday and the price jumped from $2.94

Fuel Prices and their Effect on Your Flying by
Jon Kraus
I did some checking around my area today (thanks www.100ll.com) about
what the fuel prices are, and was surprised to learn that my home base
(KTYQ) is charging $4.47 (the highest in the area), and that includes
our based-on-the-field discount. That is up around $1.00 from a little
over a year ago...

Fuel Prices For The July Pilgrimage by
RST Engineering
I'd like a consensus opinion from the newsgroup denizens who use any of the
popular "fuel pricing" websites as to the one that they find the most
accurate. My personal favorite over the last few years has been Airnav, but
I'm willing to be persuaded that there is better.
Reason being, about...
