 Posted: Thu Mar 13, 2008 9:04 pm Post subject: Horizontal Prop |
 |
|
I am getting ready to install my propeller on my 3300. I know I had somewhere in my notes that there was a recommended way to position the prop when installed and have a pretty good chance that it would stop horizontal when the engine was turned off. It was something like place cylinder #xxx at position xxx and place the prop at angle xxx. I searched the archives here and could not find it either.
Does anybody have this they could share??
Thanks,

I guess I can follow-up to my own question. I received a note pointing me to the http://www.jabiru.flyer.co.uk/ web site. Here you will find the following comment:
Stand in front of the prop looking back towards the flywheel. Position the flywheel so that the magnets are vertical. Position the prop so that it is located in the prop guides that give it an 11.00 o'clock position. It should now stop in the horizontal.
This worked for me. I ran my engine for the first time this weekend and on three of the four shutdowns, the prop stopped horizontal. On the one other shutdown, is stopped at 2 o'clock/8 o'clock. This is good enough for me.
Thanks,
