Kitfox SS won't start

[Paul Z]

Home again, now to pull the engine.

So far the only damage I have found after the move is about a 3/4 inch rub on the leading edge copilot side wing, a little touch up paint and she will be good to go.

Tomorrow I need to take the trailer to get a pole scrape on the drivers sign, not major damage but I did it and I need to have it fixed before I return it to Dave.

Good to see you made it home. If its any consolation, sebring closed on friday for weather and saturday was rather miserable with heavy winds. I dont think john mcbean was enjoying himself. Ken

Thanks for the offer. I definitely might take you up on the offer for the engine hoist.
I plan on taking the trailer back to Dave Myrick on Monday. After that it is time to start pulling the engine. I’m not looking forward to that any more than I was the 5 year rubber replacement.
I must admit the Kitfox Forum has a great bunch of guys willing to lend a hand to a fellow pilot. Thanks to all for your well wishes and offers of assistance.

I wish I would have seen this when I was stranded. I know people don't get stranded often but here is a great solution to a difficult problem. I wonder if a Series 7 SS would fit as nicely.

At first i thought it was going to stay on the flatbed. Maybe AAA would cover the ride. Ha!

Well I haven't posted in a while. The LSRM-A Certification is probably paid off today. I pulled the engine to replace the SPRAG Clutch.

The iPad will only allow me to post 1 picture at a time.
