I screwed up about 20 % of the foam core to the oil door. It broke off
when I unwrapped it and then lost the piece. Anything special about
that foam? Anything readily available to use?
Thanks in advance.

I believe that foam core is just a like a flller or should I say something
to make that door thicker so you do not have to fill with bog etc, so what
about balsa wood or somthing light like that?? My thinking is you need
something for the glass to bight to. I might be of the track here I hope you
get what I mean

Fred:
Simply lay in some foam with flox, sand to shape, and then apply a couple
layers of fiberglass, then peel-ply, and you back to where you were.
Good luck,

Fred, measure the thickness and I will check our composite shop for some
scrap I can send. Most of it is 0.25, 0.375, 0.50, 0.75 and 1.00".
I am thinking it is 0.125 or thinner. I can contact M&T on Monday for
you.

John and friends:
Thanks. I just wanted to make sure there was nothing special with the
core. I figured it was just to make the part lighter. Will Fill in
with balsa or other filler to make up the part I'm missing. John, you
don't need to send anything. Thanks for the reply.
Fred.
