For the sake of those who have a Kitfox with a Jabiru engine, but are 

not on the Jabiru list, here is the link to the inspection and 

re-torque of the flywheel bolts I did today.

Michel,

The last time I wrote you I am sure I misspelled your name.  Sorry.



What is the blue tool you show in your picture apparently identified 

as torch?  If it is a torch, it is unlike any I have ever used.  No 

Jabiru engine as yet but curious.

Don't worry, Jim, having lived in three different countries, ... I am 

used to be called all sorts of names!

The word "torch" is what I think may translate what it is, in English, 

but I may be wrong. This is the kind of tool you find e.g. in the 

kitchen, to make a crème brulée. You may also use it to solder. It uses 

lighter gas but while a lighter only burns the gas directly, this 

device allows for a flow of air to come on the side and therefore works 

more like a torch, giving a warmer blue and pencil-sharp flame.



Cheers,

Michel

Jim,

Its a butane fueled soldering torch. Find at 

Radio Shack or Harbor Freight but best of all go 

to Home Depot or Lowes for a nice kit with all 

kinds of ends and a refill canister. Very handy 

for soldering big wires and soldering in remote places.

Regards, Paul

Jim, if I understand correctly, you will receive a new Jabiru 3300. In that case, your engine has the flywheel mounted with dowel pins and you can ignore this service bulletin.



Cheers,

Michel
