Can someeone tell me how to reply to messages I get a "pop 3" error message when I try..
Also C how do I filter out the CJ posts on the Yak site? Is there a separate Yak 52 site I do not know about?
Thanks C

Subject: CJ nose strut "clunking"
From: "keithmckinley" <keith.mckinley(at)townisp.com>
Quick question for you all before I start undoing things. From day one my airplane
has had a noticeable "clunk" in the nose strut while taxing. Even at slow
speeds C every time I hit even a small crack or bump in the pavement I get it
This only happens on the upstroke or when the strut fully extends. I tried reducing
the air pressure in the strut thinking it might be over serviced but that
made the strut VERY mushy and actually made the airplane very hard to steer.
At this point the pressure is correctly set.
My gut feeling is that the hyd fluid is both old C watery and probably less than
the required quantity. I believe the strut should work almost the same on compression
and extension C just like a normal shock absorber on a car. Certainly
the clunk I hear when it over extends can't be good for the stut.
So before I drain everything and try to service it C is this normal? If not C any
advice you guys may have for fixing this problem and/or servicing the strut would
be appreciated.

Nope it's not normal to hear a clunk. And I think you're correct in
needing to totally service that strut (air and fluid). To much pressure in the
strut will cause the piston to bottom out (extend) into the enter V collar
that centers the wheel when the strut is fully extended. To much pressure
and you will not be able to get the nose gear to caster for turning.
If the hyd and air pressure are correct C you shouldn't hear anything
normally. You may hear it occasionally taxing over rough ground.

Check:
1. Proper adjustment of the over center stay on the nose gear linkage.
The "clunking" may be it comming in and out of the over center
position.-----not good.
2. The bearing on the TOP end of your nose gear actuator. Many of the
"end lugs" were not properly heat treated and are very soft. In time the
hole in which the bearing is pressed will elongate allowing the bearing to
move "clunk" up and down. We have a US manufactured 4140 steel end lug with
new bearing in stock to solve this problem.
I doubt your problem has anything to do with OVER extension of the oleo/fork
in the nose gear. It might clunk if it were grossly UNDER pressured C but
not OVER pressured.
Always yakin C

Gill C
For a your healthy 20-30 year old CO exposure at these levels of short term
exposure are not real health problems. I will give the direct passage from
the textbook concerning CO exposure concerning workers. The military's'
standard does not significantly differ from what is here stated. The
following is from Occupational Medicine 3rd edition C Carl Zenz C pp. 445:
PERMISSIBLE THRESHOLD VALUES FOR CARBON MONOXIDE
A summary of the recommendations of the National Institute for Occupational
Safety and Health (NIOSH) is as follows:
Employees are to be protected against acute carbon monoxide poisoning and
deleterious myocardial alterations associated with levels of
carboxyhemoglobin in excess of 5%. They are also to be provided protection
from adverse behavioral manifestations resulting from exposure to low levels
of carbon monoxide.
The recommended standard is designed to protect the safety and health of
workers who are performing a normal 8-hour C 40 hour week assignment. It was
not designed for the population at large C and any extrapolation beyond the
general worker population is unwarranted. Because of the well-defined
smoking and a common exposure to carbon monoxide and inhaled smoke C the
recommended standard may not provide the same degree of protection to those
workers who smoke as it will to none-smokers. Likewise C under the conditions
of reduced ambient oxygen concentration C such as would be encountered by
workers at very high altitudes (e.g. 5000 to 8000 feet above sea level) C the
permissible exposure stated in the recommended standard should be lowered
appropriately to compensate for loss in the oxygen-carrying capacity of the
blood. In addition C workers with physical impairments will not be provide
the same degree of protection as the general worker population. It is
anticipated that the criteria and standard recommendation in the document
will be reviewed and revised as necessary.
CONCENTRATION
Occupational exposure to carbon monoxide shall be controlled so that no
worker shall be exposed to a concentration greater that 35 ppm C as
determined by a time-weighted reading C hopcalite-type carbon monoxide meter C
calibrated against a known concentrations of carbon monoxide C or by a gas
detector tube units certified under Title 42 of the Code of Regulations C
Part 34.
No level of carbon monoxide to which workers are exposed shall exceed a
ceiling concentration of 200 ppms.
These are the same standards that are applied the occupational medicine
sections of the Aerospace Medicine departments in both of my Wings.
Now saying all of this C none of it applies to what we are doing in the CJ or
YAK communities because these are hobbies for most part not an occupation
