If you are truly concerned about the problem why not take it to a shop and have it fixed? There's really no way to troubleshoot and find the problem via email or a newsgroup.

Your mechanic is correct, it could be one or more different items.

Why be a member of this board if you have this view?

Clearly there is great value to getting information from others before, during, and after working with anything (plane or otherwise).

Might as well just say, 'take our checkbook and plane and drop them both off - they'll both get fixed for you'.

I take great pride in getting to know my plane and it's systems. I don't try to fix it myself, for both legal and practical reasons, but it helps to get educated. I then try to share my experiences, where applicable, with others.

I appreciate that you took the time to post a response, just wished it had more than 'go get it fixed and leave us alone' as the theme.

I think many here have offered some good advice. But that doesn't fix your problem. No matter what's offered here it's still going to take a mechanic time to troubleshoot the issue. When I was working on airplanes and helicopters I would have owners start off with "I read on the internet...." and then proceed to tell me how to fix the aircraft, whether it was correct or not.

A safety of flight issue should be left to a professional to fix correctly.
