• The Biplane Forum is a large global active community of biplane builders, owners and pilots. From Pitts to Skybolts, to older barnstormers, all types are welcome. In addition to our active community, our content boasts exhaustive technical information which is often sought after for projects and maintenance. This information has accumulated over the 12+ years the forum has been in existence.

    The Biplane Forum is a private community. Subscriptions are only $49.99/year or $6.99/month to gain access to this great community and unmatched source of information not found anywhere else on the web. We are also a great resource for non biplane users, since many GA aircraft are built the same way (fabric and tube construction). Annual membership also comes with two BiplaneForum.com decals.

Hi all.
I’m fabricating a brace that supports the accessory adapter (gearbox) on my Warner. This part fits underneath the housing for the oil pump. After removing the nuts and washers the housing doesn’t want to come off. I don’t know if it’s only the gasket or if there is any sealant under it. I think all is normal but ....

How can I best convince the housing to lift off. Should I use some heat? What shouldn’t I do?

Thanks. Figured another set of eyes rather than going hard and fast.

Dan.
