Hey all... I've got the plane down for an annual and have discovered a small
weeping leak in the bottom of the battery box (where the drain nozzle attaches). Am I correct in recalling that the box is made of tin and the nozzle of copper? Will regular Lead/Tin (60/40) solder this, or do I need some special solder for it? It seems like it should be repairable, since it looks like it was *made* by soldering. Oh yeah, and of course a good cleanup and repaint is in order back there. Very little corrosion back there, but enough to do a bit of cleanup. -Cory -- ************************************************** *********************** * Cory Papenfuss * * Electrical Engineering candidate Ph.D. graduate student * * Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University * ************************************************** *********************** |
