Hi everyone, I hope all of you have a happy new year. I, on the other hand, am about to embark on what appears to be a very unpleasant experience in Ercoupe repair. Yesterday my fuel seepage turned into fuel dripping and my engine refused to run properly at any speed other than idle or full throttle. The mechanic says the whole fuel system need to be removed, inspected, and repaired. :-( The only good thing is he will allow me to remove the parts to save some money. The plane is a '46 Ercoupe 415-D with a C-90 engine. My questions are: Can the carburetor be removed without pulling the front cowl/nose and prop? Are rebuilding parts still available for Stromberg carbs? Can the cowl tank be removed without pulling the entire instrument panel, control column, and various cables/wires? Can just the yokes and cables/wires be removed? What is the best way to remove the wing tanks? This appears to be an incredibly nasty job at best. I'm hoping someone who has done this work has some helpful tips.
