 |
|
Anyone ever see anything like this (see attached photo)? I noticed this after taxiing around the airport for a bit, warming the engine prior to changing the oil. The consistency of the spatter is like oily-grease i think (thicker than straight grease). I cleaned it off and flew a quick flight then a longer flight and it didn't happen again. I didn't notice any difference in braking.

Scooter,
You need to replace the felt grease seals in the drum. There is an outer
felt grease seal around the opening where the large disk fits into the drum.
This seal prevents what is seen in the photo. There is another grease seal
at the very back of the drum around the outside edge. This seal helps
prevent the grease from splattering all over the brake pads. The felt
grease seals comes in a kit. I believe Doug Sapp has these grease seals on
the shelf. Give him a call or email.
