    Thanks for mentioning that tool Ralph. I have two or three pieces of equipment with large nuts and hate using channel locks. These will work great. I almost expected the EAA guy to squeeze a small, solid rivet in his demo.

    I do not seem to have the 2-camlock receptacles #92000.000 or the winged stud # 92002.000 for the oil door. Has there been a change to use a different attachment such as the skytain camlocks used on the cowl top? If so I still do not have any with wing tops.

    I just got back the water pump housing from Kitfox, anyone know the torque value of the housing screws?

    Those are M6 screws. I believe that the Rotax recommended torque for 6 mm screws is 90 in. lbs. I know that this is the torque value listed for the bottom SS drain screw.
