Default RE: Evojet turbine problem

It is my understanding that the old turbine case was too damaged due to the fire from the leaking fuel lines being put out using a nylon jacket. This jacket melted and ruined the outer case. I think Eray is mad he did not get a NEW turbine in replacement.

Either way, this is a great reminder to have the proper equipment handy to put out fires when dealing with turbines.

Eray, I am sorry to hear your turbine lost a bearing and hopefully the engine you received will run better for you.
