Sal, There is a plug on the left side of the VW 2180 engine into the oil pan. This is intended for the oil temperature probe. Ground is done through the pipe threads on the probe at the engine case. You can also get oil temperature info by tapping into the oil line if you have a remote oil

Not to stir the pot, but old and flyable is still old. Mark Langford flys so much that his newer KR might over take a lot of older KR. High time is high time. For the first 15 years I never had a hobbs and never cared to record the flight hours. Anyway you are welcomed to have the

Oldest isn't going to equate with highest time. There are probably plenty of old KR carcasses out there from the seventies and eighties that either never flew or only flew once or twice. The highest time KR's that I know of are mine at 1185, finished by Ken Cottle in 1987 and Sparky's, built

Welcome back Orma. Gosh, I was thinking your KR might be in the running for one of the oldest KRs. Searching the databases on Landings.com, several KRs start showing up with manufacture dates starting in 1975. However, based on the accompanying registration information, it's quite likely

Hi guys and girls; I had my final surgery today, it was on my eye socket. All went very well and they expect no further problems. I can now transfer and pivot on my right foot with full weight which opens up a whole new range of mobility options, so things are looking up in a big way and my
