    Two different taps ! . One a quick test of fuel. The other to drain your " gascolator " , at the days end. Those threads are the same pipe thread ( tpi ) . just one is tapered , to seal with-out thread tape . spacesailor

    Yes, I did make a mistake ! Thank you " onetrack " . 100 mph is 161 kph. I hadn't mastered the times tables, then the metric system was thrown at us . I don't think I will ever master this . Has the metric bolts , ' have just one size fits all ' . Unlike the American " course medium & fine thead " system ? . spacesailor

    I could say ! . Curtis sent me the wrong one , so no good , & expensive . The oring free from my local " fuel injection " shop . & working good ! . The different thread ! , straight or tapered . spacesailor

    Try an " auto electrician " who does fuel injection. He will have the right size " Oring " . I purchased a new valve but received the wrong type & couldn't get a replacement! . spacesailor

    Just like the English " DH Comet " three crashed . Then after a short inquiry, they went back into service . Only to be grounded for design faults and build faults. spacesailor

    I have always wondered why , Rotax motor's couldn't be slanted , ( as in above picture )to get a better look . That big exhaust on the side is off-putting. spacesailor

    The obscene salary of ' top ' C E Os in Australia ( $ 53 million P A ) leaves litle for ' shareholders ' to celebrate . ( not forgetting all thos junior Executive Officers ). The J E Os always vote for bigger pay increases , as they climb that corporate ladder . spacesailor

    That's a problem for many, is the lateness of hearing about a fly-in / drive in . But , didn't we have a " topic " for " spare seats & flyin's " . spacesailor

    Those expensive lawyers , will be trading in their Bently sports cars for Toyota's. That will drop the price of their insurance. Novared lease companies will. Drop their car values too . spacesailor

    The new students, will have to do what the wealthy have always done !. Divest all personal assets . So they can become ' bankrupt ' . Then they can pay ' five cents on the dollar ' . Like one of my grandsons !, owns nothing , lives at his parents , And can't be bothered to sign on the dole . He has his trade certificate, but was threatened with court action when his Labourer dropped something, causing damage somewhere. Never worked a day since . what could they get out of him . spacesailor

    Ear moffs & foam ear plugs , will not stop hearing damage . If the sound is in the 120 plus zone !. How do I know . I have industrial deathness. Can't hear sparrows, cicadas, and lots of spoken words . spacesailor PS : or , my cat calling for food . I just see her mouth moving .
