I want a pre-oiler!

Try the "Half-VW" engine trick/pre-start,

 

Switch off and remove spark-plugs then turn engine over Thirty (yes,30) times, checking for rising oil pressure.

 

Hoping it works, as the engine needs to last a long time: For the Grandkids or GreatGrandkids to inherit.

 

At half galleon an hour it will be one of the last piston engine aircraft flying.

I couldn't find the right place to put this little item !.

 

Some-one with size Thirteen shoes wants a small aircraft,

 

I can't see any manufacture Other than Hummel saying "We can alter the rudder peddles to suit your shoe & get the Toe-brakes onto the ball of your foot,"

 

sounds like they keep their customers happy.
