Here is the picture of what Herb was talking about on Jergis’s SU31

Anyone know where to get the case acess that goes on the right side of the case when facing the engine? We had a discussion about oil in the cylinders and fluid lock at OSH. Yeargis has a glass cover on the case that if I understood correctly allows him to pull the prop through after shutdown - while he can see the position of the crank. When the crank stops in the highest 12 oclock position then no oil siphons down into the case. Does anyone in the US know of this mod? It seems simple and easy to install - 3 bolts unless you have a Yak 52TW with electric starter - then this cover is used to mount the starter. It also solves the problem of starting with no oil. I have never heard of it or seen it discussed, yet there it was on Yeargis' Sukhoi and Sergei knew of it too. Any Euro's on the list know of it?

Kevin, you are absolutely correct and I agree with every word you have said. I believe in your system(s), and plan on purchasing them, or at least some of them, myself.   

    

That said, I am sure that if every M-14 equipped aircraft had the shut off valve, sooner or later some yahoo would manage to start one with the valve off. Right now, the ones equipped with the valve are a very small minority.   

    

If after this discourse, anyone has any doubt at all, let me make one thing perfectly clear: I believe that Kevin Kimball and his associates produce some of the finest parts and come up with some of the best ideas (relating to just about anything and everything) that I have ever come across. I recommend his aircraft, his products and his accessories without doubt or question. If this sounds like a commercial.... sorry, but I believe when someone deserves praise, they ought to get it, just as when someone is a crook, the world needs to know THAT... no punches pulled. I am a strong advocate and supporter of every single thing Kevin's company stands for, has made, or has on the drawing board. We're lucky to have someone like him around.

Herb,

  

 The part pictured is from kit similar to Kimballs  clean. The kit was made by Sergio Dallan. I've got a couple here, I'll try to  dig out some pics and info and post it to the list.
