I assume this is one in the mains and it is a 337.
If so...... then flying without a hub cab would not create a problem. It is not in the minimum equipement list <G> nor is it a critical part. ...

I would assume;

2) I would consider trying full power to see what would happen.

2) maintenance was not cheap on the P210
3) backup vacuum was...

The ameriking is very small and can be placed almost anywhere. I use one as a second encoder with a second transponder. This one is far easier to calibrate.
