Overhead shade: Buy the largest silver sun shade at Wal-Mart & cut to fit. Use glue-on velcroe that can be removed later for esthetics.  Total cost: <$10

Peter, what did you use for your overhead shade?

Peter, I installed a certified oil separator on my o-200 and was very happy with the results! I assume you are talking about the crankcase vent tube pushing oil on the bottom of the aircraft? After I installed the one I have now I found one on Sonex Aircrafts website. In the Aero Vee section under accessories, 100.00, not the 350.00 you will pay for the certified one..... I believe you could adapt it to fit the 750. Typically it goes inline on the vent line and then returns to the pushrod cover via a bulkhead fitting w/ o-ring. If there is a low pressure port or plug into the crankcase that is another route. I didn't find one on my o-200. I just put 10 hrs on mine this weekend and spent 5 minutes wiping down the belly! It was clean compared to before.. Let me know  if I can help, Jim
