Any of you folks wanting to see the latest pics on my engine adaptation and some of the problems I am running into take a look at these pics. I already tested the link so it should work.

Could not make the link work.  I tried pasting the address in with no luck either.  Did the address come through to the forum intact?

Take the space out of the tiny url just before the ".com"



Or...... http://tinyurl.com/hl2oy 



That's the good news... The bad news is when I went, they wanted me to join

the "FlyGeo" Yahoo Group.

Ron,



Had a problem with the url until I noticed that there is a space between the

(dot) and the (com) had to copy and past entire url and delete the space... 



http://tinyurl.com/hl2oy



This one should work.



Looks like you are coming along well. What was the deal with the gap in the

bell housing?? 



I'm using the SPG-2 also; I noticed it looks like you have the 16valve

engine.  I'm working with the 8 valve.  



Keep us posted.

Are you on the Geo list? I went through the description there already.          It looks like the drive shaft coupler is about 3.5 mm too long. I          suppose I can force the whole thing shut by torqueing the nuts down on          it but I don't want the stress deformation on the BMW rubber donut. So          I am going to machine the crown down so it will fit snag and tight but          without deforming the rubber donut. Did you have any trouble with your          set up?              

         Also it was a bit of a bear to get the RDU to mate through the studs          into the bell housing. I guess the Russians are not known for CNC          machining. I got it to fit good but it took some additional          machining. Gee wheeze... it never ends......               

         Just once it would be nice if everything goes along smoothly.

The Tiny url doesn't work. It takes you to a page that asks you to join Yahoo groups. I hate that! Yahoo groups are so much worse than people whining about dial-ups! Waahh! Why doesn't anything ever work right? Waahh!



Must be this ol' sinful world we live in... <grin>

I'll enjoy the pictures if I ever get to see them....

I'll be watching both you guy's progress with the four bangers.  Have  

to admit one extra

piston would be nice on my Kolb.  And you also confirm reports that  

the SPG/russky redrive,

although robust and reliable, is a pain to assemble and fit to the  

engine.



Maybe one of these days I'll go the same route.  Right now I have  

arrived at the stage of

fun flying with confidence in my airplane and want to put some hours  

on as is.



Happy knuckle banging and keep up the reports.

Hi Russ.              

         I am sure by now you have seen the comments about the space that          sneaked into the url.              

         Too bad there is no way to get into a posted message and do some          editing.

Hi Bob              

         In this day and age one almost does not expect to have such problems          in terms of fit and finish. But I think its almost an obligation that          we disclose such things to one another, for several reasons. I think          we owe it to fellow Kolbers and aviators to get the straight poop, for          the old Caveat Emptor and the second if the distributor does not get          the feed back from us the consumer he will not change, not that I am          expecting Vassily to change. He rather argue about that. My respect to          old Kissinger is increasing all the time now.              

         I guess they don't have CNC out there in Siberia,, yet.. or they got          CNC but too much Smirnoff.

I would have liked to see the pictures, but could not see any    Once I clicked on the URL, it asked me to log into yahoo, which I did.  Then it asked me to join the group, and await for approval, that is when I gave up.   



If I have to sign in, sign up to join, then wait for the pictures, its just not worth looking.   It would be so much better had you just attached some pictures to your post.

Hi All

May I suggest.  When I was on the luscombe list we used a great site built 

by a Luscombe pilot called www.popav.com  He lets people post pictures to 

this site easly and for no cost or advertisements.  The Luscombe portion of 

the site has over 275 pages of pictures. There is an Experimenal section but 

I can talk to him and put a Kolb heading under the type aircraft section and 

we can use this for posting. The firat pictures I posted were in 2000 so I 

don't think it will go away any time soon.  But I also believe that we 

should post pictures to the Matronics list for archive purposes.  Check out 

this Link and let me know what you think. all the pictures are under the 

Type Aircraft link on the top menu.

http://www.popav.com

Thank You

Jeff Nelson
