    Spoke to the people at Jabiru today and in their testing, screwing the mixture in or out made very little difference to the engine operation.They are a bit baffled by the surging.They advised the things to check are ,any balance tube obstructions,float levels, maybe drop the float 1-2mm so will check these out next.

    Why doesn't that surprise me. Anyway, the point of drilling out the idle airbleed in the first place is so that we can get the idle mixture system working. If you cannot get the engine to respond via turning the idle mixture screw all the way in , then say 3 turns out, then we have one of two scenarios.... 1. You need to go to a larger pilot jet (my preference) 2. It is not mixture related, at least not in the area we are playing with.

    From: Martin Hone <aerobiz1@gmail.com>
    Hi Don, Yes, I have made that mod as well. I think it came out of the African guys. I can't say that I noticed much of a difference, other than the plugs all read much the same after the mod, so I think the mixture distribution was improved due to better atomisation and temps were more even. So I guess you could say it worked ! Martin > Hi Martin > On the Matronics forum you recently mentioned that the main air bleed > should be opened to 3/16".

    I have not really had a chance to play around with the throttle while concentrating on flying other then pushing the throttle [back over 2000rpm] in so as not to stall it and then once on short final going to idle and been high enough to clear the fence as the engine stalls.Once on the runway I put a 1/8" throttle on and it starts and purrs just as it should and taxi back to hangar .Local glider pilot CFI has recommended me for the silver gliding star award. The other strange thing was just before Xmas I did my BFR with stalling etc at 4500 ft with no engine problems other then once on short final it stalled but this time the CFI hit the starter button and I just concentrated on the landing phase as normal once the engine started again.

    Alan, full marks for your perseverance in the air with a problem that would leave some on the ground. What's the fuel supply set up?. In a Thruster I assume you still have mechanical and electric pumps? As the engine works fine through most of the envelope it is indeed a tricky one. Your mention of 4500 , for testing setting up an approach at height? IE simulate the approach at 4000 feet or so you can feel around to see what has an effect with plenty of time to get her going again. So, throttle closed and descending we are on the idle system and there is assistance from the windmill effect but then she stops. How long does it take to come on? Is it every time you adopt the approach set up? Do you have carb heat? If so do you always put it on? What happens if you don't? Is it carb ice conditions (check the graph) What revs sustains the engine? Does your plane have the kamikaze dive approach angle? (flying brick, nose down) or is it a newer one Just thinking out loud..... -----Original Message----- From: owner-jabiruengine-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-jabiruengine-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Thruster87 Sent: 17 January 2012 03:16 Subject: JabiruEngine-List: Re: Bing 64 Idle circuit inlet aperture drilling 3300A --> <alania@optusnet.com.au> I have not really had a chance to play around with the throttle while concentrating on flying other then pushing the throttle [back over 2000rpm] in so as not to stall it and then once on short final going to idle and been high enough to clear the fence as the engine stalls.Once on the runway I put a 1/8" throttle on and it starts and purrs just as it should and taxi back to hangar .Local glider pilot CFI has recommended me for the silver gliding star award.
