Fluctuating oil pressure during prop braking
From: 
"bluesidedown" <mbick@carolina.rr.com>
      
      
      I am having some strange things happening with oil pressure and I think it is because
      of my prop governor but I am not sure. Now the oil pressure is 80 lbs at
      full throttle and only drops to 50 @ 800 rpm when fully warmed up and on the
      ground is as strong and steady as you could want. Even fast taxing back and forth
      is is fine. But when I am flying what happens is when I pull back the throttle
      the oil pressure fluctuates considerably. It only happens in the air when
      I pull back the throttle and the prop is braking. Now on the ground I can't
      reproduce it and all is normal, only in the air when the prop braking can I reproduce
      it. Another thing I noticed is that it will not go to 2700 but only about
      2600 and I adjusted it out but no effect. 
      
      The prop is an AEIO360 special with a front mounted governor and the prop is a
      new Whirlwind 200c 
      
      Any ideas?  
      
      Thanks
      Mike
