Hi Joe,
My inspection is scheduled for Thursday, bit I have already safety wired my spin-on oil and fuel filters. For the dipstic we can rig a coil spring with a hook on one end to be able to remove the ds.

I had a pre-DAR inspection by an EAA tech counselor and another long time
L-EZ driver last week.  They both recommended that I safety wire the oil
filter and dip stick. I can see their reasoning and agree with it.but I
don't recall ever seeing it done on other rotary installations.

Anyone have any insight here? (yep, safety wiring the dip stick makes
checking the oil a little difficult - I think the point was to figure out a
way to keep if from vibrating out.

Thanx,
