......... stays liquid........has finely chopped ??? mixed into the goo. Going by the bottle guide, you definately get some horrible out of balance wheels. Maybe......1/2 the recommended dose could be the answer. ( i've tried the recommended dosage......then replaced tubes ) Now running 10 ply tyres

maate.......that's rubbish, sorry. Exactly as windsor says, and myself..........local chap ( oz builder ) has guided RAA into a document that all but prohibits non Oz machines. Deny that as hard as you like........it's "ducking and weaving " Chap with imported machine ( yank ) i know of, has been battleing RAA to get some fairness, and commonsence into this, that battle is ongoing.

one end of the strip to tother end, should qualify for Xcountry..........sorry, that was mean. know a chap with one, says if it's not australian made, you've got problems. Seems Oz maker has the ear of certain folks, and protecting his patch is the aim. Folks importing long proven craft models, get nothing but anguish trying to get legal, getting trained ....wow, that's another story. RAA duck and weave over this issue. Would love to see this topic opened up, should see some ducking for cover by some.

Dropped into Normanton mth or 2 ago, nice looong tar strip, fueled up, refueler guy notices i had a flat tyre.......bugger i says, we taxied in ok, no probs, must have just happined. He tells me he had compressor on board, bewdy pump her up pal, and i'm gone real quick. 2 plus hrs later, we land home grass strip............that's when the fun began.

May the lord punish you with headwinds, ............Grrrrrr:blush:

I'm hearing you brother.....i'm hearing you... i'm going to try that aerosol emergency repair gook next time out yonder ( plugs hole, inflates tyre ) ......so the can says.

ok....so i'm vertically challenged. ( me mum always told me, great things come in small packages )........so there.

400ml was a tad wrong, closer to 300ml topups over 25hrs. Catchcan generally 25% full after 25hrs. Fill oil higher, it just get's pushed out, hence keep it low. worries me running low oil on those long legs tho.

maybe not enough ??? Off topic......but.......aquaintance tells me he fills his jab oil to the top mark, and that's where it stays for the next 25hrs. Mine.....25hrs i add about 400ml, and that's with the oil leval maintained quite low on the stick................strange ????

I must have run over a black cat...or something. Brand new 10 ply tyres fitted recently. All's good...........pulled me jab out of the hanger today ( tried to ) flat tyre...........you must be joking i think. Pull wheel off, split the rims...........bugger me, tube was pinched between the 2 rim halfs..........so there you go. More careful next time.

Once again................it's the jab brigade putting in the big ones. ( hey casa, whatya say, aye )...........oh, forgot.......the jab bashers as well. Keenav and mate.......enjoy the return trip south.

sounds like a whole lot of "man crush" going on here. ( O well, could be worse ).......

i've got no problem......ol mate here (Darwin ) seems to be getting mixed info, re opal......hence..........VEV. 91...95, into rotax ??? i'm not concerned about that aspect.

Vev..............where are you mate, sort this..........again. ( won't ask you again, promise )

I've said it somewhere here ??......ol mate, petro guy, said for ??? reasons, they ( refinery ) rate the stuff at 91, but it's a lot HIGHER.

Avgas 100LL is around at quite a few communities, it's well and truly under lock and key, but....you can get it, by prior permission ( current stock situation )...often drums, be aware. ( Be super nice when you call em......trust me, otherwise you're p!ssin in the wind )....O yea.....don't push for a tank load, enough to get you to proper outlet. Have gained LL several times remote locales.......remember.....be nice. Ol mate petro guy.........says avoid octane boosters in general.

update.........engine supplier has agreed to rebuild to brand new again, owner pays for parts only......how good is that. ( considering melt down was caused by oil cooler hose blowout.........not supplied by engine builder/supplier ) Engine builder/suppler begins with "C"...ends with "T" ....now that's what i call service in capital letters. As to the cooler supplier........i think it's not so good, yet to hear.
