I've been having an issue with the gascolator leaking. Changed out the gasket a while back and it's leaking again. I was looking at the Steve's aircraft gascolator but they are only STC'd for the 14-13's. Talked to the folks over there and learned that the gascolator is part of the airframe type...

Well folks, 7612e flies again. After nearly 3 years she finally took to the skies again. A few bugs to work out but the ole girl did 173mph (gps average) at 2350 squared at 6500 on a rather bumpy 92 degree day. New fabric and paint and general restoration. A huge thanks to Joe L. the A/P, who...

Hi guys, it's time to start cleaning up the wheel wells. What is the best thing to use to treat/clean up the wells? Any advice would be appreciated.
