Hello Angel, The Dimona Mark 2 started with serial #36220. The fuel filter position had changed by then.

From the photo I suspect your Dimona is a Mark 2. Serial # 362??

The filter is accessed by removing the inspection panel in the bulkhead (4 screws). This is better than cutting holes in the fuselage! Incidentally, the sprung tailwheel will solve your vibration problems.

Now i'm thinking to change the antique tailwheel for sprung tailwheel, maybe the vibrations disappear. Certanly landing on the grass, recuce vibrations. Regards, Angel P.S. Another question, I have to change the fuel filter but I noticed that it's neccesary to remove the fuel tank!!, and it is necesary to change every 50 hours. I think the problem end making a search below the fuselage skin but reinforce the zone . Do you now if somebody made this search? I apologize for so many questions, I adquired reciently the plane and sometime I was a little lost, also for the language because I do not speak English, only Spanish. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------------------------------------------------------- You are subscribed to the Dimona Owners Group mailing list.
