Default RE: carb diaphram replacement color/material


ORIGINAL: av8tor1977

The way the top diaphram is distorted looks to me like classic damage to the rubber diaphram from fuel additives such as ethanol. When the pumping part of the diaphram gets distended enough, it will no longer pump fuel properly. Been there done that....

Right on av8tor1977...I been there too! Hey I flew my Giles G202....it is a real nice flying airplane. I do think some of the ARF from Nitro H. are well worth the money. The instructions was missing on mine...must be they wanted to save on paper! Ha! Capt,n

PS as you know some of the hardwareis better for .60 size airplanes!
