Std 102 water ballast plug
The plug for the water ballast is stuck in up position. I've reached
in and tried to operate the lever by hand, but it will not move. Any suggestions for getting it operational? Thanks - Tom

Penetrating oil, inside and out + heat gun applied
to valve. Work it gently until it starts to move. JJ At 19:00 10 April 2005, Tom Dukerich wrote: The plug for the water ballast is stuck in up position. I've reached in and tried to operate the lever by hand, but it will not move. Any suggestions for getting it operational? Thanks - Tom

were the wing to fuselage linkages in the right position when the wings
were put on the fuselage - if the dump valve was closed in the wing and the dump lever in the fuselage was open - you must take the wings off and put everything "closed" and reassemble.

There are no valves in the wings. They both feed to a drain plug in the
fuselage belly.
