Re: Check valve and release lever on 149

It's amazing what can happen when you put your glasses on. Taking a close look at the pinned-on metal tab, the part that actually should contact the valve buttons was broken off right at the pin.

Re: 149 voltage regulator questions....

Hi. New member here. I'm just curious as to whether you have to polarize the generator after installing the new regulator. On my 169, I've replaced the old regulator with the newer one which has the "Gen", or "A" terminal on the bottom. With the old regulator, momentary flashing between the "Bat" an...
