Was thinking of drilling 1 1/4" holes in the outside of the baffles to allowaccess to the plugs but would have to find some kind of rubber plugs for theholes. Stock Corvair wires come with such plugs and would be the way to go in thissituation.We have what we affectionately call "mailboxes" on our test stand engine andyes, we have to unbolt them to get at the plugs. Our wires come in throughthe back. Pat________________________________________________________________________________

Rick=3BI'm late commenting on the spark plug access for your eyebrow baffles but I thinkyou were on the right track as far as punching holes in the baffles to give you accessto the plugs. However=2C instead of rubber plugs=2C consider using some of those snap-inhole covers that are used for knockouts in electrical boxes or the ones used to capunused punchings in stainless steel sinks. In your plumbing section at the hardwarestore. You could reach inside your baffle and pop out the cap=2C then insert yourspark plug socket and off you go.Just a thought.Oscar ZunigaAir Camper NX41CCSan Antonio=2C TXmailto: taildrags(at)hotmail.comwebsite at http://www.flysquirrel.net________________________________________________________________________________Date: Thu, 8 Jan 2009 12:16:49 -0700
