hi guys...it seems to me that if you ran a line off the roll-over vent to the
rear of the plane(out the bottom ) if you put it on its nose the end of the
line is higher than the tank (no loss of fuel) and if it went over on its back
the check valve should work (hopefully no fuel) brad davis
I've got a Dakota (PA 28-236) and a KR 2. The Dakota is the station wagon for
hauling people and baggage, and the KR is the sports car for when Daddy just
wants to have some fun all by himself. I spent many hours in a PA 28-180, they
are a great airplane. Keep the KR fire burning, it's a

Great info on all the engines. As you know I have a lycoming in my kr and I am
very pleased with the performance and the fuel burn,but it was along road to
get to this point. Lycomings are not a bolt on instillation,the carb hangs down
very low, the cowl needs to be extended, valve covers
KR builders,
With the events of late there seems to be a sudden search for a suitable
aircraft engine for the KRs. I am not going to tell people what engine they
should use, but I will walk through a comparison of the series of Continental
and Lycoming engines that *COULD* be suitable. This
