AeroInjector and AeroVee Maintenance [AeroVee, 2.20.14]
Posted: Fri Apr 11, 2014 6:00 pmAeroInjector and AeroVee Maintenance [AeroVee, 2.20.14]
Hello again AeroVee and Sonextalk eGroups-
We have seen occasional postings to these groups detailing problems
encountered with the AeroCarb/AeroInjector, AeroVee Engine, and other
AeroConversion products. Given the large volume of products in use
worldwide, the level of issues is very small and we aim to continue this
trend by offering the best factory support in the industry.
Unfortunately when someone reads a posting from the same person for the
third or fourth..or in some cases fifth or sixth or more time(s), the
logical conclusion is that this is some kind of standard experience. It
also is logical to think they're not getting help from us, which is
unfortunate and simply not true. We encourage everyone in
the AeroVee Community to responsibly share information and request
assistance from the experts in the community whenever possible. Given that
we fly Seven AeroVee Engines on our own Sonex Factory Fleet, we feel we have
the best knowledge and experience to assist you if you encounter any issues.
A few comments on recent postings to both AeroVee and SonexTalk Groups:
In our opinion and experience, adding complexity and spending more money on
a competing carb makes no sense whatsoever. Spending time to learn and
understand the versatility and simplicity of the AeroInjector seems the more
logical route.
We respectfully disagree with anyone that would assert that the completion
of an AeroVee Assembly project or maintaining a completed AeroVee is beyond
the reach of the average homebuilder. In short, if you can build an
airframe, you can assemble and maintain an engine. The AeroVee and
AeroInjector manuals provide step-by-step detail to assist you and/or the
more experienced set of hands you wisely bring in to help you to accomplish
every task. A part of aircraft ownership in any form is learning and
understanding every part of that aircraft. No better way to build this
knowledge and experience than from the inside out. This brings the dream of
aircraft ownership within the financial reach of most anyone who chooses to
pursue it.
Sonex is always discouraged and disappointed to see those who easily could
have asked for help not ask for it..or even worse those who claimed to have
and never did it. We are here and easy to find...a simple phone call or
e-mail away. We want to get you flying as quickly and more importantly as
safely as possible! Safety requires a mix of diligence, common sense, the
right help, and perhaps most importantly the willingness to listen, learn,
and act on experienced recommendations.
Some of the most common issues we see coming in to our tech department are
related to the proper set-up of the electrical wiring, proper maintenance,
and running within factory Operating Limitations. The AeroVee Assembly and
Installation Manual is unquestionably the best source for troubleshooting
information on the engine and it’s installation. The AeroVee manual may be
downloaded from our web site by anyone at any time to assist with these
common maintenance tasks. It's a great way for both current AeroVee
Builders and Pilots to get this information and prospective customers to get
a sneak peak at the high level of support we provide with our products.

We are pleased to see the tremendous growth in demand for all of our
products and promise to continue the highest level of support for each and
every one of you as you build and fly your own aircraft. There is no sense
of achievement quite like it!
