I'm curious if anyone has any experience with these prop governors. I've
got one installed on my IO-540, but haven't yet run it. It has the
advantage of being a few pounds lighter than the standard one and is 2
inches shorter, improving my inlet ducting a lot.

I have an IO360A!A with egt/cht probes on each cylinder. No. 2 cylinder is my
hottest for both egt/cht with egt at times 300 deg hotter than #1 at times , #2
1500-1550deg while cht may be 350-400. We have changed injectors with no change,
changed plugs & range no change, checked baffling, closed off oil cooler
behind #4 cyl (to check baffling also)no change. Some have suggested a possible
exhaust valve leak. Would this show up on a compression check with a cold
engine or does it need to be warmed?

Dave -
Have you carefully checked the location of the EGT probe and its
relative orientation to the others? You didn't mention the CHTs of all
cylinders. What are they? It doesn't SOUND (emphasised because we need
more data) like a mechanical issue as much as an sensing/indication
issue. Did you swap EGT probes? The location of the probe in relation
to the flame front from the exhaust port is really important on a
RELATIVE basis. Whose system are you using? How did the plugs look
relative to the other cylnders? A standard compression check, performed
on a warm engine, will also tell us a lot. JBB

Hi John,
The CS aluminum 2 blade MT propeller is hydraulic controlled only.
The CS 3 blade MT propeller is available with an electric or hydraulic
controller.
This blade has a stainless steel leading edge. It is a certified propeller
design which meets the rain and ice impact requires of the FAA.
The MT propeller blades meet the same requirements as an aluminum propeller.
The stainless steel leading edge is just three times more resistant to
damage than an aluminum blade.
There are two recommendations for the MT propeller on a floatplane.
Order the propeller with the extra corrosion protection for the internal
parts. $300 extra.
Order the blades painted Dull Gray with Gloss White tips. Free optional
colors.
Regards,
Jim Ayers

Is that CS prop electrically or hydraulically controlled? My engine is
not built for oil-powered prop governors. I am, however, confined to
metal, because this is a float plane.

I really want to know what caused this as I am sure others do to. I think
the pilot handled
it well!

Hi Y'all,
The following was a fascinating first hand report with photos of an engine
failure, with good photos. It came from another bulletin board. I thought it
might be useful for your review. J!LL
