Subject: Pietenpol-List: Need a little helpPieters As I am before installing my A-65, I have that Stromberg Carb without a mixture control device. Not being familiar with this device I would greatly appreciate if some knowledgable soul would pour out his wisdom on this subject and guide me through the process so I can finalize my instrument panel controls. I definitely want the mixture control if its available without too much adaptation or expense. I just don't know what's involved. ThanksCorky in lean La________________________________________________________________________________

Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Need a little helpThanks for the reply. Would like his name and address, phone and/or email if possible. Have you heard of many A-65s w/ mix control. I'm sure the L-4s had them in WWII but I don't know. Everyone says it's not needed. That's what they say about a chute in a Piet also.Did you receive the picture of YOUR brake parts mounted in MY Piet?Corky________________________________________________________________________________

Subject: Pietenpol-List: Need a little helpPieters,When I built 41CC one of the highest hurdles and time consuming projects was the fabrication and installation of the fuel plumbing particularly the cut offvalve and remote control. I am at that stage again and would like as many solutions as you would feel free to share with me. I have an 18 gal fuse tank just rear of the fire wall. I need a on-off valve easy enough to operate with apush pull wire.ThanksCorky in La________________________________________________________________________________Date: Sun, 14 Mar 2004 17:29:47 -0800
