Talking about that... the barometric pressure sensor is a common rattling part. It is held in place by small bent tabs. What is the correct way to firm it in place short of using duct tape?

A little epoxy fixes most rattles.

Lol!!!

Yikes, that does look a little bit second hand. ;)

looks like it has been in water

Spray the parts that are supposed to move with WD-40, and the parts that are static - wrap them in duct tape. It will be good as new!

Is it for sale?

Joe Bob 09-06-2018 06:54 AM

Well, the two relays showed up last night from Pelican. One is a spare....slipped it in and she fired right up.

Now I will find a convertible top shop to fix the leak. It was replaced twenty years ago and is due....

Any idea if a line of silicone along the seam be advisable?

steely 09-06-2018 07:18 AM

That's great news JB. Sealing idea doesn't sound bad at all, an extra bit of insurance. RTV or similar maybe. I hate to ask, did the DME itself get spared?

Joe Bob 09-06-2018 07:19 AM

The relay was resting on the floor. The DME had a bit of space and did not get a bath.
