I highly suspect it is the batteries, but.... I did use the EPU. So. -7 celcius today in the great white north. Went out, preflight, nitro, fuel, everything in the green. Normal start sequence with the little EPU, she starts up and gets to 20% RPM and sits there at 20%. nothing more, shut down. Again, same result. got out the big epu (commercial for Falcons/Kingairs etc), same results, the epu kicks out 400 amp, then drops to zero (expect that) and the planes sits at 20%. Egt's never over 575. any thoughts? I am really thinking its batteries in the nose are weak or done (odyssey's that are fairly old) -------- Mike "Skidmk" Bourget Ottawa, Ontario Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=478948#478948 ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 04:14:56 PM PST US From: Anthony Royal Subject: L29-List: Ignitors and Wires Does anyone out there have qty (2) new ignitors and qty (2) new ignitor wir es for the M701?=C2- Part number on the ignitors is=C2-PAL N 80-3. If n ot, I'll take salvage parts if they are good. At the very least I need the ignitor wire that runs from the controller on the left side to the ignitor on the right side...the longest wire.=C2- My wire burnt off inside the metal elbow that attaches the wire to the ignito r. The ceramic is cracked in the elbow so I can't salvage it. Also, I think I have asked this question before. Has anyone ever taken the oil pump plate off the bottom of the oil pan to look at the oil pump gears? Mine is weeping oil around the oil=C2- pump mounting screws. Tightening doesn't help and there is a black 'centering screw" that I would like to kn ow how to set and exactly what it does.
