Andrew,
Check tach -- do you use a tiny tach ? Many others have found to be un-reliable
and inconsistent.
For prop. just make the pitch finer 1/4 degree at a time and run up till you get
6200 static. You do have a prop gauge?

Good update Roger,
I have used thousands of Gallons of Regular grade auto gas with ethanol in 582
Kitfox with out any issues yet.
No melted fuel lines, melted fuel tanks blablabla
I know what works for me and locals so the rest is just fear mongering form the
Armchair captains LOL
I have no KREEM in my tanks either.
So it works for me, ethanol is not my choice but I forced to use it .
Dave

I've been using ZEP Heavy Duty Citrus Degreaser from Home Depot. Works
great for gasoline stains and grease on the motor and under the plane. I'm
not a tree hugger but is biodegradable.
Everytime I use a "green" product, I have to go out and cut down a tree to
compensate.

| Subject: | Hour meter device |
I'm sure a few people have looked at a device sold by Aircraft spruce
that will run your hour meter only when the engine is actually running.
I knew about it but didn't really pay much attention until I saw it
again yesterday. I thought it would be handy to not run up hours anytime
I power on the master and thought about what this device might do, with
only three wires for rect + in, battery + out and a lead to the hour
meter (and apparently any other DC device like lights you might want to
run). I thought about this and it seemed to me that a single power diode
would accomplish the same task. If I put the rectifier output to the
diode and fed the same leg to the hour meter it would only run while the
engine did. The other side of the diode to the battery would take care
of charging duties normally. I wonder if there's something like a TO 220
in that little can?
Do not archive.
