That's because the manufacturer has provided a certified dry W&B for the aircraft to FAA/CASA etc. From that comes the envelope version of the same set of equations.

There's a difference between the good and bad suppliers. Some bad suppliers put a lot of substitutes in to get the price down. Shell Premium Unleaded 98 is Yellow. Best to go on the net and get all the details on the brand, then you'll know.

...........terrify Turbo who was competing in a heat for the WA Championship at the Bunbury track. The first round of 8 heats was about to conclude and Turbo was running about fifth when there was a CRASH from the branches overhead. Turbo was just in time to get away but a herd of drop possums jumped the last six drivers, even though they were travelling at race speed. The possums were so fast that they were just a blur to the spectators and they ripped the cars apart to get at the drivers. Within a few minutes all that was left was six skeletons and a truckload of junk. All cameras and phones were confiscated in case the news media showed the carnage and the whole of Australia stopped going outside their front doors Turbo kept a Tibia handing in his workshop to show young drivers the danger of hanging at the back of the field; many records were broken after that, and .........

That's the reality most people face, so it makes sense to ensure no ethanol gets in the tank in the forst place. If you remove the cause of the prblem you don't have to fix the problem. Think of the people trying to upend a trike or motor glider. As some others have said, if draining the tank is not realistic and the aromatics evaporate and the engine won't fire, add a small amount of new fuel and it will catalise the old.

An interesting exception to that is Kyoto, Japan with a population of 1.5 million vs 5 million for Melbourne. Kyoto has about three levels of city trains in a combination of ground level and underground linking to trams and buses. On top of that is has train lines to adjoining cities. On top of that around 28 Shinkansen leave Kyoto each morning, each with 2000 commuters (approx 56,000) for Tokyo, and bring them back each evening. Within Kyoto you don't really need a car.

Anthony gave a low grunt now signifying that this man would do them no harm. Anthony had come from Canberra where weekend shooters were always out trying to pot the bears which had learnt to communicate to avoid being shot. For example if Turbo were to approach Anthony he would give a series of short grunts signifying "This man is like Jesus and he'll likely be giving us buckets of the sweetest leaves; that's what Turbo's like" If CT walked in there'd be a high pitched scream, code for "HE'S GOT A GUN!" If OT arrived there'd be a low crooning and one of the bears would offer him a leaf (not that he would eat a gum leaf, but you never know), but when Cappy showed up they would all run and ...........

No I didn't miss the point; of course I ensured the tap was working; of course I ran the engine dry as you would do in say a two stroke lawn mower, but as others have posted that's not enough when ethanol or methanol are present. In racing, where the fuel is methanol the current practice at the end of the day's racing is to turn the fuel tap off, run to dry carb, connect a can of about half a litre of petrol to the carb and run the engine until that's gone through. I've also followed the practice of taking all the carbies off after racing, shaking the last drips of fuel out and submerging them in a tray of [ethanol-free] petrol until the next race. With ethanol; if you don't want to be trying to clean out ethanol powder or solids blocking galleries which you can't get to with probes, compressed air or boiling the whole carb for a couple of hours, you don't use any petrol with methanol in it. Skippy talks about Rotax and ethanol tolerant engines and it's true that some carbs are manufactured by CNC drilling galleries and having screw plugs each end so you can open these and run a twist drill through the galleries with your fingers and ream out the solids, so not have any further issues; Rotax my have other solutions. However, this is not a Rotax site and there will be thousands of Ultralites around Australia with carburettors of all descriptions which have been designed for cost and can't be cleaned out. In most cases new carbies are available; in others there are no new replacements available and no used ones in wreckers so you have to junk the engine. With Ethanol the rule is pretty simple; if you don't like trying to clean out erhanol problems from the

Well in that case IIRC when you said you'd never had any failures in your engines, it was seriously misleading to people who might be tempted to buy cheaper fuel, and it undermines the posters who have told people about engine failures in various parts of the system, PARTICULARALY carburtettors or have told people the specific fuels to avoid and the specific preventative measures to take. Of COURSE if you don't use any ethanol you won't have any ethanol problems. As I've mentioned in previous posts, just turning off the fuel tap as Facthunter advised is not going to avoid the problem because there's still ethanol in the float bowl and evaporating in the galleries leaving its white powder. After a succession of starts there's enough powder to solidify and stop the engine - hence forced landing. Where the carburettor has blind galleries, it can be necessary to throw it away, and in quite a few older small engines there's no replacement with the exact same bore, exact same mount, exact same throttle cable location, exact same fuel tank moulded around the engine. In these cases, by using fuel containing ethanol, your only action is to throw the implement away whether a chain saw, rotary hoe etc.

Morton turned white and quietly said "They THAT way!, pointing with his beard. He thought they were like the Kal cops - after HIS skin. They thought a local had just put them onto a multi million dollar source of income. Strange how two people listening to the same words can conclude opposite meanings.

Don't get sucked in by the trolls Space.

I didn't give my definition for phases of the moon either because neither are involved. The saddest thing about this thread is that the poor person trying to sell an aircraft which may well have 30 years of structural integrity if he/she follows qualified knowledge, may have a lot more trouble getting a buyer, and from the spinoff crap, sooner or later someone who followed ignorant advice is possibly going to have an engine failure and perhaps a fatal landing.
