This is a follow-up post from my previous ones regarding my leaking carburetor.
Bob Kachergius at Uni Tech Management Systems produced a beautifully overhauled carburetor for me. Installed it a month ago and several test flights have been flawless. You may reach him at 708 – 267 – 7111.

Hello Doug. Your new hub is successfully installed on my Champ. Everyone at Princeton airport, including the IA, were impressed by its quality construction.

3745 paper shaft prop hub
Hello.
I am looking for a 3745 tapered shaft prop hub for my Continental 75 hp in my 7 AC Champ. Mine is cracked and unserviceable. I believe the same hub is employed in the 65 to 90 hp engines. All advice gratefully received.

Re: 3745 tapered shaft hub
Dear chief pilot, or Raleigh. Please forgive my ignorance about using this site. As I write this I am not quite sure the message will get to you. I even tried the PM reply method but got no place.

Re: seized spark plug

Obviously the dowel pin has to line up with a groove in the insert. Do you use Lock-Tite on the threads? You referred to the Continenta...
