    Have everything settled in now with about 30hrs on the plane. Biggest problems were self generated. Fuel pump presssure set tooo low for high power and originally put the primer solenoid in reverse direction. Everytime I hit the electric boost pump the engine flooded. Still breaking the engine in. At 32 inches and 2300 RPM I am able to decrease fuel flow from 28gph down to 15 before the engine stumbles. Fully responsive from idle at 750 RPM to full power and 2900 rpm. No tendency to hesitate or stumble. Have been agressively leaning on the ground and this appears to be keeping the plugs clean. -------- Milt N395V F1 Rocket Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=77087#77087

    Milt, Are you using the automotive spark plugs? What altitude are those numbers from?

Altitude was 6000' 57 deg F OAT As soon as I get some oyher problems fixed and a few more hours on the plane I'll take it up to the mid teens and see what I get. -------- Milt N395V F1 Rocket Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=77100#77100
