Separate names with a comma.
I can relate. The worst part is wondering how bad can it get? I've been flying for 30 years and still had the crap scared out of me flying out of...
It's boring, the plane is moving, can't really see from any distance. Sounds like fun until you do it once.
Vividia Ablescope VA-400 USB Rigid Articulating Borescope Plus W03A WiFi Box for iOS Tablets iPhone and Android Phone and Tablet. This is the one...
Did a full intake system leak test. No leaks.
To close out this thread, I finally fixed it. Originally I think I had some fear of the idle/mixture knob. Possibly from some early bad...
That is a good thought but I have an electric primer system. It is possible the solenoid is not closing all the way. Something else to check.
I will check this.
This is the case in my plane. It has a very short carb heat inlet from a half-open heat muff. Definitely less resistance than pulling thru the air...
That's good to know. The challenge is figuring out how to accomplish this. I've spent a long time adjusting the carb to try and get to this but it...
Yep, checked my vents yesterday, including borescoping the inlet inside the tank. They're all clear.
After landing, on roll out. Probably just before it dies, now that I think about it.
No mp gauge. No vacuum system on my homebuilt.
I went and took another look at the induction system today. All new gaskets last year and I checked the torque on the bolts at the recent...
I have an electrically dependant engine with two electric fuel pumps in series. Both pumps are on in landing and takeoff phase. I always check...
I have all my fuel lines insulated. I think this would have cone up in the previous 600 hours. But I appreciate the ideas!
I misspoke in my post. I meant to say a slight increase, about 25 rpm. Idle rpm is right at 700 which is a little higher than what I was running...
Engine is an O-235- C1 with an MA3A carb., without the primer pump. Flown almost 600 hours and never happened before, and now its happened twice...
Seems a strange question in this day and age. I worked in the consulting engineering for over 40 years. For about 30 of those years I wore suits...
That just sucks. Sorry for your loss.
Altitude of the mountain top? Summertime temps?
