Quote: | Good news from the hangar, my compressor is fine. The first thing I did was to take the filter off and cover the compressor intake with a latex glove. Propped it 6 blades and all the air was sucked out of the glove. That was a nice surprise We then removed the check valve and found the piston jammed with carbon. After a good cleaning we put it all back together with new crush washers and I flew a 5 min test flight. Pressure was maintained above 30. After shutdown a good whoosh from the snot valve. Thank you all for the tips and thank you Dennis for your expert input. Back in business in very short order. Gord |
