Hello,
The ST needle on the engines I have that are mounted in my planes with cowels isn't long enough to extend beyond the cowling for adjustment. Makes it difficult to try and set the mixture especially when the engine is running. I have to use needle nose pliers. It's a bit dangerous.
Perhaps this question has been addressed here before but I couldn't find anything when I searched.
Does anyone (Randy Smith) offer a longer ST needle? Maybe there's a good way to extend the needle?
Any advice appreciated.
Thanks,
Joe
