Scott;Great idea for a separator, and very simple! However, I am surprised that yourseparator seals well enough to not leak, unless you have a gasket along the flangedface or you sealed it with something. Anyway, I may try something similarbut I had not thought of just venting it under the cowl instead of runningan "overflow" out the cowl somewhere. I'm tempted to go the Larry Williams routeand find some sort of an old-timey can instead of trying to bend one up outof sheet. I may also place mine down low where I can drain it from the openingin the bottom of the cowl, like my gascolator and oil tank quick-drain.Very interesting about your oil temps. My A65 was more cold-blooded than the 75is, and it stayed down around 140 most of the time, even in the hot Texas summerwith two aboard. I worried about it being so cool, but I guess it wasn't.The A75 (which is still pretty tight, with not a lot of hours since completeoverhaul to zero time) warms up to about 180 if I run it hard in hot weather,but it never gets above that.--------Oscar ZunigaMedford, ORAir Camper NX41CC "Scout"A75 power, 72x36 Culver propRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... __________

Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Re: Don YoungbloodOscar, I know you meant an old timey oil collector. but could someone usean old fashoned Marvel Mystery Oil can? or something equally cool. It willalso make non experimental people go bananas.-- Blue Skies,Steve DIf that was not Off topic enough, I am in the middle of getting myinstrument rating at Tempus training in San Marcos. They are affiliatedwith Redbird flight simulators. My training is about as far as you can getfrom a Pietenpol. New Cessna 172Ss with Garmin G1000 glass cockpits andfull motion simulators. The sims are very good at making me feel like I amthere. I loved learning to fly. But as far as Instrument training "I didn'tlike it So Much!" Not fun, watching the Lines and numbers all get out ofbounds while I try to figure out how to intercept a radial and dial in thenext Fix and Brief my approach and ... and...Crap I just blew through theintercept on the ILS approach. It is something I need to get done so that Ican move on to Commercial and CFI. I want to teach flying as my followoncareer to the military.Blue Skies,Steve D________________________________________________________________________________
