<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Dave Lockhart asked this question for me last night
as my older bones were too weary. Short story is OS140RX, Perf Spec AAC
piston/liner and Mintor dual plug head. Ground for the remote glow is on engine
lug. Remote glow didn't work, we had continuity to crankcase BUT not head. Had
to remove the anodizing from the Mintor head at the base of the glow plug the
remote clip was on ( Tetra ) AND the head surface where the head shims/top
of cylinder liner mate. Once done the remote glow worked like a charm.
I can't believe I am the only one that ran into this, had us both scratching our
heads. Upside is after 6 months of bad weather, winter, family commitments, a
long drive from NY to NJ, a long night in Dave's workshop to finally fix the
remote glow, my EMC finally flew. Required no trim, perfect up and
down lines, no roll couple and 2% up elevator mix with left rudder, 3% up
elevator with right rudder. Slight adjustments to expo and my EMC fits me
perfectly. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Many, many thanks to Dave Lockhart for giving
me the setup from his EMC's, the 3 blade prop and his moral support. I hate
first flights, having Dave there to lend a hand guaranteed success.

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Many, thanks to Dick Hanson for a super design.

in Masters District 1 with this plane. Will miss the "oh my" trim
passes with my Elan though : ).</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Let's keep in mind that the angled plug on the
Mintor 140 does not really matter. You only need to hook the remote glow
up to one of the two plugs. So if the angled plug is going to create a
problem, then just hook up your remote glow to the straight plug.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>It's 1:15am for you. This is not the kind
of thing to be worrying about at that hour. All the remote glow ideas that
were on this list earlier should work. I have a Wagner remote glow
gadget on one and a spring loaded clip from the hobby store on
another. The plugs are not angled, like the 140 so I think there
should be no special problems.</FONT></DIV>
