Kolbers,
Have you or do you know of anyone who has mounted an oxygen sensor on a two
stroke engine?

No, but if some of us get any older, we will be mounting one on the
microphone boom, just to monitor how we're doing...

Wonder how the O2 sensor would handle the oil mix? Herb

Herb,
I am using Opti-2 which seems to be a non smoke oil. I have emailed them to
ask if their oil would kill an O2 sensor, but I have not recieved a reply.
The position for O2 sensor placement has already been predetermined. I
placed a second EGT probe down stream from the position recommended by
Simoninni. My thought was that if the plugs read rich and the EGT was
running at the upper limit maybe a probe down stream would read lower. It
did not. It consistently reads 100 degrees F hotter. So when I take off
the second EGT sensor, I will weld an O2 sensor adaptor to the pipe at this
location.

Dear middle-aged poops (you ain't old yet!)
Good idea about an O2 supply on the mike boom -- after years of
swordfish spotting, banner towing, whale surveys, parcel drops &
pickups -- I go on O2 at 1000'! -- how could I manage that in a
Kolb ? Maybe I'd never fly that high anyway --

Hi Russ,
I assume you meant 10,000 ft..
Mick Moulai tells me today that he had my Xtra up to 10500ft and still
climbing yesterday as part of the test programme on my machine.
The programme is almost finished and I may actually get my hands on the
plane myself in the next couple of weeks.
Cheers
Pat

No, I meant 1,000 feet! -- the low level is where I work -- & shine.
And smile!
Glad to hear your bird got to 10,500! You'll have a ball when all the
folderol is over --
Fair winds,
Russ
