Reminds me of the old joke; A pilot trying to impress a girls says he flies a C182. Girl says, "What kind of plane is that?" Pilot looks around points out a Hercules on the ramps and says, "Well that one is only a C-130!"

Years ago I was putting the carbs back on an outboard motor, the stud was waaaay down there and no room to work. I slid the nut down a long skinny screwdriver, set the tip of the screwdriver on the stud then let the nut slide down...magic!

I made a VERY crude copy of the vera ratchet years ago. It was actually a cut off box wrench riveted to a piece of flat stock. It was wonkey but it worked after a fashion. It was to get to something on an allison 250 engine as I recall.

For the regular mechanics out there the manifold pressure gauge is "backwards" from a traditional vacuum gauge. Zero is a very high vacuum, near 30" hg.

I used to work on Aerostars. The twin turbo and intercooled version. I swore if I ever got to Santa Maria, California where they were designed, I would look for Ted Smith's grave so I could piss on it. Who in their right mind would put permanently mounted cowling supports a half inch away from the rocker covers, eh? Hey, #6 cylinder is low, want to change it? Someone brought a Robinson R-22 in for an engine change and told us we had to remove the transmission first. I looked at it and decided there was a better way. We got everything loose and ready in the engine area then put jacks under it for support, then had a couple guys lift the tail boom a bit while I lowered the engine and pushed it aft. No problem.

Like the continental oil pump swaps with the starter adapter is part of the oil pump housing. No clearance with the firewall and most of the time you’ve got to use an engine hoist to rock/twist the engine to get clearance to pull the 6” bolts out

If I remember correctly you’ve already got a good setup of tools. But I recommend knipex pliers wrench first, then fill in with the Wera sets. Knipex is way more versatile and covers more sizes

Great job on the C130!! Legends! :-0 Interesting how much movement you had on the throttle body on that Cirrus. I would have thought there would be some kind of fixed mounting but am I right in saying it's basically postioned by all the intake hoses and the main intake at the back? Cool stuff!

Could you comment on the pressure you applied into the induction system? I would think far less then the usual 80psi to not blow things apart…maybe just using barely 20psi or as low as you can get your differential tester to apply?

Looks almost like that plastic-y section is partially collapsed causing a huge air leak right there. But maybe it was just made with that optical illusion irregularity. Could it have been an over torqued hose clamp causing that plastic section to collapse? Or is it attached to something that has a corresponding shape?
@aviationsquared1909

That’s a good observation but it’s before the throttle body and MAP sensor so it shouldn’t be causing the drop

We hooked up our fuel flow box to test it.. but I can’t upload longer than 15 minutes, so I wrote “to be continued”. And part two will be out next week. In part one (this video) we showed, the rough running engine, and induction leaks that we found causing the manifold pressure to spike at idle RPM
