Does anybody have the correct P/N for the Mitchell RPM tach to replace on a io520 in the M eyers? Mine starts fluttering and I need to order in advance.
My hydraulic pressure instruments shows wrong pressures although it is still sealed. Did anybody have it overhauled in the US? Where would you send it to?

Thanks, Thomas

Hi guys
The flight controls on the Meyers 200 do NOT need to be balanced when painted. They are controlled by push –pull rods. Aircraft that have control CABLES they are the ones that need to be balanced if painted.
This from the FAA.

Also on ANOTHER change to the IO550-F engine is the 2 bladed prop on the IO520-A is 82 inches, the IO550-F engine requires a 2 bladed prop to be 84 inches.

Thomas-my F&M continues to leak and now the SB has turned into an AD. I am going to take one more shot at securing it and if it still leaks-probably go to an Airwolf.

Best-

Hi Ed,

I found the upper intake mount bracket broken on my plane. Caused some vibration. Fixed it but now we chase other problems, like a leaking F&M adapter and a leaking valve cover.

Keep the spirit up.

HI from Germany, I have the same problem. No significant leakage but still a mess after flight.
We will try again and report.

@abryanwade Like Dean said you can lube it , I have lubed mine by removing side panel and airblowing lube thru cable back to the control box.
Ed Pulliam replied to the topic F&M Oil Filter adapter in the forum Engine – Meyers 200 3 years, 8 months ago

Joseph-exactly what happened to me. Should have left it alone as it was not leaking before we replaced the 2 gaskets.

I am going to try one more time and see what happens. And on to AW most likely if it leaks.

Checked up on the AD I said is coming out, and I cannot find anything on it. So for now disregard. Apparently the information given to me from a mechanic in KAPA does not check out. Sorry for the misinformation, not good on my behalf. Apologies.
Joseph Gibbons replied to the topic F&M Oil Filter adapter in the forum Engine – Meyers 200 3 years, 8 months ago

New AD calls for removal of the teflon gasket at the base of the F&M adapter to be replaced with a crushed seal gasket. Also adapter must be torqued to 65 ft. lbs. every twelve hrs. I searched the FAA site fir the AD but it has not been posted yet. I followed the ad procedure and twelve hours later the top of the adapter had already began to seep…[Read more]

Looking for dimensions on door seals for 200D. Anyone have info? Working on annual for N200D trying to get door seal from leaking.
Joseph Gibbons posted an update 3 years, 9 months ago

Ad is coming on the IO-520 with the F&M oil filter adaptor on April 04,2022. Make sure all follow instructions and torque properly. Ours started leaking on a rebuild right out of the shop improperly torqued. Follow maintenance procedures and Fly Safe.

Hello All, Good news for me and Carl Richards. Finally picked up N200D from Burley ,Idaho after 1 year and 5 month repair and compliance work for the modification done in 1987 without the proper paperwork. I worked very hard on the paperwork and research end to gain acceptance. The aircraft is now legal. If interested check out flight aware for…[Read more]

I have a SideWinder and it has worked well. I think a golf cart with appropriate hardware is the ticket.
Paul Bruk started the topic Towing in the forum General- Meyers 200 3 years, 9 months ago

What do you use for powered towing? I was thinking to get an ATV or golf cart.
