I prefer the 98 unleaded and have seen heads coked up with that horrible yellow stuff many times from 100LL and especially on Hi Lead. Limbach advise me it is better to run unleaded but being an aircraft engine must also be able to be run on Avgas. Nige.

I think BP is 97. How do you find out if it is capital city fuel.

Has anyone been running mostly on high mogas blends and if so how well do components like exhaust valves last?

When all is OK then use the cardboard panels as templates to guillotine the aluminium sheet. Our fibreglass tank is a very tight fit in the back compartment. I am a little concerned that if the aluminium tank is also a tight fit that a very slight error in measurements and/or construction could be a major problem.

This post is for those in Australia with H36 Aircraft. For those who have the FRP fuel tank which needs inspection every annual or 100hours note it expires at 3000 hours. I have a copy of the drawings for the alloy replacement fuel tank. This will require and OZ E.O. being raised for the production of the same and welded by a CASA certified welder. I have spent some time tracing over the drawings as they are old blue prints and working through the interpretation with German speaking engineers to get then to the point of being able to be used here. There are some tooling issues which will need to be addressed in an EO for an alternative to the fabrication method on the drawings. Thus before Rob and I go down this this path to produce 2 tanks is there anyone else on the list interested in cost sharing for an upgrade. I will happily do the change just to avoid the AD each year. Also I have had a quote from Diamond. To put things in perspective the quote is less than a new set of clear view panels and rails for the canopy. If there are enough interested I can negotiate a better price. Being realistic with the way the exchange rate is the price isn’t bad and if we can get a discount for volume it will be even better. From Diamond. “P/N for the tank is DV2-2811-00-00, sales price € 635,18 for one piece We do not have them on stock. If you are going to order them the external supplier has to produce them new for you.” Cheers. Nige.
