Has anyone received a 1099 misc for their $500 rebate? I have not seen one yet for my 2018 install rebate. Maybe they are held up due to the partial government shut-down last month.

My Piper Archer (O-360 Carb) has been having a hesitation problem at around 1200 to 1500 RPM when advancing the throttle so I suspect an induction leak. I also notice no slight RPM rise when changing the mixture to idle cut-off and the Idle Mixture adjustment does not produce an RPM rise. The...
