All,
I ran into an issue on my non RV aircraft. The exhaust port has eroded and can no longer seal between the gasket and the exhaust. I found tan powder on my spark plug and did a bubble check to comfirm.
My local A&P said to try to find a tool and do it on the plane without removing the cylinder. I don't want to spend this much money and only use the tool once.
I called this company and they no longer make the tool.http://www.widell.com/old_wid/pneuport.htm
Found one similar at spruce but dang!!!!!!! at least $700 by the time it gets to me.
