It probably would not clear most of our motor mounts, but it is a start. http://www.mazdatrix.com/8newproducts.htm Bill B -----Original Message----- From: Rotary motors in aircraft [mailto:flyrotary@lancaironline.net] On Behalf Of Rogers, Bob J.

The retaining ring was in place but no sign of the o-ring. Is it ok to pretty much glue this damn thing in some how???? Lynn suggested a metal solution but that is not in my skill set. I have halamar and used it last time. Yes, I did instal the ring. So, since I bought it I will be installing the new oil pump. Heck, the old one is over 20 years old. If any of y'all has a remedy for this damned thing slipping out you will have my complete attention. Oh, I am sending a picture or how I am making the front cover area easier to get to :-) Chris Sent from my iPhone 4 -- Homepage: http://www.flyrotary.com/ Archive and UnSub: http://mail.lancaironline.net:81/lists/flyrotary/List.html -- Homepage: http://www.flyrotary.com/ Archive and UnSub: http://mail.lancaironline.net:81/lists/flyrotary/List.html
