Bungee cords and grease for starter gear

3 posts in this topic

Posted

Its me again. my Avid Mark IV has bungee cords but they are 20 years old, never used but should be replaced.  Do any of you have a source that can make them up?

 

I am about to mount a starter to a 582 Rotax. I assume the gears need some grease, what kind should be used?  Back to the asle grease?

 

Thanks for your help!

Here is a link to build your own shock cords for the landing gear.  Be sure to buy the good aviation bungee to build them.  Also do a search on this forum there is a lot of info that has been posted here.

You should not need any grease on the gears of the starter. IMO

No grease on the starter gear, but it wont hurt to put just a dab on the starter shaft.  You can make your own bungee or you can buy them from highwingLLC  Lowell and Dan are great guys and I bought my last set of bungees from them.
