Subject: | Lycoming Engine/Carb AD |
All=2C I have a Lycoming O320 in my TR1 and I am having a difficult time st
arting it during these cold mornings. I am not sure if it is due to a low
cranking capacity battery or the lack of a primer. I do have an electrical
fuel pump. Is anyone else experiencing this? Any suggestions or recommen
dations? Thanks. Peter

The FAA has issued an AD for a particular carburetor installed on many Lyco
ming engines. Check and make sure you don't have one of the affected carbur
etors on your engine.
Here is a link to the AD: http://www.eaa.org/news/2012/2012-03-07.pdf

Do you have an accelerator pump on the carb? It should on a 320 or larger.
It pumps some extra fuel in to accelerate the engine when you increase the t
hrottle. You can pump the throttle a few times while the engine is cranking
to get some more fuel into the dense cold air. You do not want to pump too
much or pump with the engine stopped since fuel will drip out of the carb.
You could always go to fuel injection. I like my silverhawk setup.
Also, if you do not already have one, a modern battery like the Oddessy batt
eries in aircraft spruce should give you more cranking power for the same we
ight and size.

I won't make it to Sun-N-Fun this year since I will be in Harper's Ferry,
WV during that week. Maybe next time. Al, I will let you know the next time
we do get to Florida.
