Subject: | Re: Fuel Injection |
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,
Are you using the automotive spark plugs? What altitude are those numbers
from?
Thanks,
Scott

Still the big Russian plugs but will soon convert to the automotive.
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.
