Chris,
The photo of your forward deflector looks to me like it goes down all the
way to the head fins. If that is the case, then you are probably blocking
air flow to the aft cylinders. Since your two CHT sensors are on the front
cylinders (3 & 4) you should move them to 1 & 2 temporarily to check their
temps. Once you get them all in fairly close to each other, then it doesn't
much matter which ones you monitor thereafter.

Seth,
I may be driving up that way on that weekend. Can you give some driving directions.
Maybe an address so as to goggle up directions.
Thanks,
DD

| Subject: | FSII Full Enclosure |
:D Hello everybody! I have been flying a bunch and tinkering with my IVO prop
and after trying and trying I ended up putting the prop about two turn out from
where it was when I purchased it. This slightly lowered my static RPM's and
improved cruise slightly so...I'm happy... for now! Any how as you know I live
in Ohio and the weather has been getting much cooler and my FS has only a little
dinky windshield. I went out and purchased a sheet of Lexan from the local
Lowe's and enlarged the wind screen by about a foot and it's working great...HOWEVER...I
am still way exposed to the wind and I would like to build a "Full"
enclosure. I was hoping somebody on here would have a set of plans they
could email or send to me and since I am a lazy corporate pilot I would rather
purchase one already built and fit it to my airplane. Either way I want to get
my FS enclosed soon. Let me know what you guys can come up with I and my wife
would really appreciate it! Thanks again everybody and fly safe!

:D Map quest "Adams Mills" Ohio. The runway is located about 1 mile west of that
town next to "Monroe Basin" and just south of state Rt. 16. I believe in previous
post I misspoke and said st rt 36. That is incorrect it is actually off
St. Rt. 16. I apologize although I grew up in Coshocton it has been many years
since I have driven around there, sorry! Again it's "Graham field" marked
PVT on the Cinci sectional! Hope to see you there!

Chris,
My EIS is a very old model. When I bought the SS, all four cylinders
had CHTs but no EGTs. Since all four were close to each other and way
below the too hot zone, I swapped one of the CHT sensors for an EGT
(#4, right front on pusher). I now plan to swap out the CHT sensor of
#3 for a second EGT so I can have two of each. EGTs on front and CHTs
on aft cylinders.
The important thing is for you to know that all four CHTs are roughly
the same and well in the green. Once you get your baffles and
deflectors trimmed and positioned to achieve that, it is probably not
all that important to monitor all of them simultaneously. At least
that is the way I'm going to do mine.

I love having all the info from eis. All cylinders wired etc. My first installation
of eis showed my hotest cylinder well in range, but 100 hotter than the other
(377). Found a scored cylinder fast. Also i dont worry much about all the
numbers most of the time. Just configure the alarm limits low ( just above normal
indications) and wait for the red light. The light is tested every time i
start up due to how the fuel probe works.
Happy flying
Renee
