Hi, check your private messages I will buy it. thx

So that must be what they call a blowpot then eh?

Is that the same as a blowpot? How heavy is the torch and how hard are they to find? Got pics?

Hoping to find an engine pre heater that burns car gas. Looks like they are not made anymore? Think there was one called a Red Dragon.

But would the Ultralight Airstreaks be good enough for bush strips? I was told they are much much thinner and designed for grass not rocks and sticks...is anyone using them on bush strips??

Thanks, I’ll check into it, but Canadian laws are anal, like can’t order certain windproof lighters from USA, and one time I couldn’t order a hunting blind from USA because it didn’t meet the gay fabric fire proof rating of Canadian law...yes a hunting blind, it was a Primos Double Bull...

Do you live in the USA?...I live in Canada and one builder/inspector in Canada told me about this.

The firewall has to be metal to pass inspection.

I bought a kit that a guy started on, and he got a 100 hrs into building it. It came with Matco Wheels and Brakes...i may go to Beringer...i thought Beringer was lighter but today i was told they are heavier?? Beringer very expensive but sounds like anybody that tries them loves them for their...

Thanks for all the comments, it was a tough decision, but I bought a Superstol Kit.

I was trying to "reply with quote" to the couriorguy with the pic...still getting used to this site...and my computer was locking up when i tried to reply with quote...must been because of the big photo , thanks for all the replies guys

What engine do you have? You fly a Rans S7 ?

Ive burned AV gas on long trips in my Rotax 80 hp 912...i just use the decaline lead scavenger additive to help reduce the build up. What did they have for engines in the S7's? What do you have for an engine in your cub?

If you have a pic of it that would be excellent. Yes carb ice, that's why I'm looking at the fuel inj.

I think the one i saw a pic of before looked like copper. Do you have a pic of it(even an installed pic? Any trouble with a leak around it ?
