Hi Paul, Neil I have now done around 4 hours with the new oil set-up and everything appears to be normal - oil pressure good and no leaks. All still only positive G aerobatics. I have fitted the new harness and an extra lapbelt. After the last flight I have also managed to fit the RevCarb, but as Pa...

Hi Paul, I am thinking about the initial oil demand and have noticed the bulb below the sump in the pictures you posted.

Dear Paul and Niel Another question - do I interconnect the breather pipe and the oil air separator with the rocker covers and the Christen valve (as it seems the Christen manual suggests) or do i keep separate the oil breather hose and oil/air separator from the rocker cover - Christen valve connec...
