installing lower cowling - tape tip

Post by A2022 »

when installing the lower cowling I use vinyl tape to secure the air intake baffles so that they are out of the way. they remove easily once the cowling is in place.

cowling needed to be removed to adjust my right mag timing. it had retarded 2 degrees in about 70 hrs. what's up with that? upon mag check, the drop difference between left and right exceeded the 50 rpm limit.
