Subject: | Re: What is the relationship between |
Thanks Barry Check 6,
I hope I'm not to much of a Mystery Man. I'm an 68 year old retire(semi-retire
pilot/mechanic) working on my Europa with a 3300L Jabiru. First flight was
June 8, 2012. It only lasted six minutes because of high temp on all the cylinders.
I have been working to get them all down and finally made a flight last
Monday of 46 minutes. Four and Six were still running hot, but reducing power
kept them from going near red line. Oil temps started coming up as the air
temp at my altitude were 85. DA was about 1200 feet.
I rechecked my blade pitch and it was 20 degrees. I re-set it to 18.2. I have
been working on the lower cowl to seal the oil cooler off. Should have that
completed today. On my sixth flight of 30 minutes the oil temps were good, but
the cowling had dropped down and when I found the reason and fixed it it opened
the area in front of the oil cooler and on the next flight the temp slowly
came up. Hopefully, I have fixed this problem.
Thanks to all on this web site as I have been reading your problems and remarks
for the last year. I hope to learn something everyday.
