Netters,

After my last post I was somewhat sad, this morning I called Steve B and he 
said that he saw my post, and called Dan Diehl to have him gat a new magnet 
ring started.  I called Dan and he is going to overnight the magnet ring when 
completed.  No cost. (thank you again DAN)   WOW.....I'm not fully sure where 
the problem was, we think it was a miscommunication!!!  but I should be back in 
the air by the weekend.....  yeeeehaaaa.

Netters,

I have completed the fixes on my plane, and went to take the first post fix 
flight today.  After the warm up I noticed oil dripping from the cowl.  After 
further inspection, found the the rear seal was leaking.  I had to pull to 
motor again, to fix the leak.  I found the the new mag ring and stator had 
caused an issue.  the stator came in contact with the mag ring, and several 
magnets were broken.  Hopfully a call to Steve B. will give me some answers. 
but for now  no yyyyyeeeeeeeeehhhhhhhaaaaaaa.   And  for you steve Glover, I 
will have it back together for our trip to oshkosh.

Lee
