<DIV><SPAN class=287481903-02062003><FONT face=verdana>Those numbers are
TT adapter nuts. The APC props have different hub thickness depending on
what size prop you are using. Some TT spinners will not fully engage the
backplate if the prop hub is too thick....other TT spinners when
tightened will distort the spinner backplate.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=287481903-02062003>You can add washer shims in front of
the adapter nut to prevent the distorting and shorten the adaptor nut if
the spinner will not go on all the way. It's kinda goofy but that seems
to be the way it is. I asked a few other flyers about this problem a few
years back but they didn't seem to know what I was talking
about.</SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=287481903-02062003>TT may make a short and long adaptor
nut....but I couldn't find it on their website.</SPAN></DIV>

<DIV>You may have the wrong threaded adapter nut. Check that out. I'm
not familiar with 813A, or 814A. What are these numbers. Been a while
since I bought adapters.</DIV>
<DIV> My 140l's run at full throttle about 1 1/4 to 1 1/3 needle
opening. That has a lot to do with nitro content. I run 30% heli fuel.
I'm guessing 2 turns out is a good starting place.</DIV>
