    Dennis, I do not pretend to know all the differences between the engines, but I do know the M14P and M14B have a lot of differences including the carburetor. Simply changing nose cases does not do it. The M14B was not intended for aerobatic use and needs some internal changes to allow for inverted operations. The accessory case drive and the oil pump are different. Be careful about these things. George Coy Coy Aircraft Sales 714 Airport Rd.

Was not trying to disagree or start an argument with you Dennis . Just did not believe that this cure was applicable to the problem being described. Respectfully, I still do not. Regarding the stumble in throttle movement. I have talked to many people about this pressure carb. A lot of people think they have this thing fully figured out and I have some doubts there since their explanations seem to differ from the mechanics I have talked to that are Russians themselves and were trained in that country. I know that my personal understanding is much less than complete to put it mildly. I do not have the personal first hand experience to back this up, but from what I have seen one Russian do, it appears that the "P" model engines that I have seen stumble are usually able to be cured without plugging the accel pump. Some cases have required changing air bleed jets to values that "by the book" seemed to be rather extreme, but the change then allowed the accel pump jet to be pretty much left alone, or operated withinn normal ranges but never plugged. This is problematic in that this puts strong suspicion on proper operation of the diaphragms in that the engine was possibly over rich in the transition range to begin with. My comment about P vs. PF engines was not meant to imply that the problem could not happen with a P model, but that in every case I have seen it could be cured by exercising the complete range of adjustments possible with this carb, further that while it may have been tried and used successfully with the P model, that according to my sources, it was originally intended for the PF model where this problem happens more often. I am not sure who "invented" this mod.... Seems to me I was told once... might have been you, George Coy, I really am not sure. I hope someone chimes in regarding this so that if I am wrong on that point, I can be corrected. Given that there is no magic in how an engine burns fuel, and that there are a lot of P models that run perfectly without the accel jet plugged, it seems to me that an engine that does not run right has something out of adjustment (or just not working right internally) and does not need a carb design change. No question that the mod works on some engines, but to me it is a matter of robbing Peter to pay Paul. Bottom line, no one around here has a flow bench for these things that I know of, or has tried to truly tackle over-hauling one and then charting the flow curves on this side of the pond, and since the darn things are no longer in production, long term users may eventually switch to fuel injection anyway. While New Bern is not a big airport for Russian engines, we have had 5 aircraft with P model engines, all of which ran perfectly without stumble, and another 4 with PF models, ALL of which stumble some worse than others. I was told that the carb does have a circuit for WOT mixture enrichment. I was also informed the operator can pull the throttle back until a very small change in manifold pressure is seen in order to save fuel with minimum performance loss. Both pieces of info came from Russian sources directly, if that means anything. Mark Bitterlich _____ From: A.

Mark, There are many, many M14P's, 360 HP engines that exhibit the throttle response hesitation. The problem is not limited to the PF engine only. The problem of throttle response hesitation can be reduced by changing the accelerator pump jet down to a smaller diameter. The smallest accelerator pump jet is .9 mm and I can say from experience, changing to the .9 mm jet does not totally eliminate the problem on those engines that exhibit the problem. I too have plugged many an accelerator pump jet to stop the hesitation problem on both P and PF engines. My opinion is, the accelerator pump jet provides additional fuel during WOT which helps to cool the cylinders (richer mixture). I'm not sure what the long term impact might be by plugging the accelerator pump jet.

    Subject: Re: Why would my Yak 52 m14p lose power?
    I appreciate the enlightenment George. Up until your email and based on other inputs from some pretty well informed people (at least I thought so anyway), I deduced the B could be made into a P by simply changing the nose case. I surely won't make that mistake again.

    Subject: Re: Why would my Yak 52 m14p lose power?
    The only reason that I am a little familiar with this is that we had several new M14B engines converted to M14PF engines for a customer a few years ago. The work was done at Motorstar, the Romanian factory. The were surprised at the many differences and commented that the internal accessory drive shafts and gears were much more substantial than the M14P shafts and gears. I also know that the few M14B instillations have had trouble with the oil pump fittings clearing the motor mounts. George Coy Coy Aircraft Sales 714 Airport Rd.

Dennis, I do not pretend to know all the differences between the engines, but I do know the M14P and M14B have a lot of differences including the carburetor. Simply changing nose cases does not do it. The M14B was not intended for aerobatic use and needs some internal changes to allow for inverted operations.

I acquired the "fix" from our friend George Coy. All good input Mark. I also agree one can pull the throttle back until one can see a slight decrease in MP and save fuel. This is proven by watching the JPI fuel flow instrument installed in my airplane as well as others. Dennis ----- Original Message ----- From: Yak Pilot <mailto:yakplt@yahoo.com> Sent: Sunday, December 21, 2008 10:01 PM Subject: Re: Re: M14PEngines-List: Why would my Yak 52 m14p lose power? Was not trying to disagree or start an argument with you Dennis . Just did not believe that this cure was applicable to the problem being described. Respectfully, I still do not. Regarding the stumble in throttle movement. I have talked to many people about this pressure carb. A lot of people think they have this thing fully figured out and I have some doubts there since their explanations seem to differ from the mechanics I have talked to that are Russians themselves and were trained in that country. I know that my personal understanding is much less than complete to put it mildly. I do not have the personal first hand experience to back this up, but from what I have seen one Russian do, it appears that the "P" model engines that I have seen stumble are usually able to be cured without plugging the accel pump. Some cases have required changing air bleed jets to values that "by the book" seemed to be rather extreme, but the change then allowed the accel pump jet to be pretty much left alone, or operated withinn normal ranges but never plugged. This is problematic in that this puts strong suspicion on proper operation of the diaphragms in that the engine was possibly over rich in the transition range to begin with. My comment about P vs. PF engines was not meant to imply that the problem could not happen with a P model, but that in every case I have seen it could be cured by exercising the complete range of adjustments possible with this carb, further that while it may have been tried and used successfully with the P model, that according to my sources, it was originally intended for the PF model where this problem happens more often. I am not sure who "invented" this mod.... Seems to me I was told once... might have been you, George Coy, I really am not sure. I hope someone chimes in regarding this so that if I am wrong on that point, I can be corrected. Given that there is no magic in how an engine burns fuel, and that there are a lot of P models that run perfectly without the accel jet plugged, it seems to me that an engine that does not run right has something out of adjustment (or just not working right internally) and does not need a carb design change. No question that the mod works on some engines, but to me it is a matter of robbing Peter to pay Paul. Bottom line, no one around here has a flow bench for these things that I know of, or has tried to truly tackle over-hauling one and then charting the flow curves on this side of the pond, and since the darn things are no longer in production, long term users may eventually switch to fuel injection anyway. While New Bern is not a big airport for Russian engines, we have had 5 aircraft with P model engines, all of which ran perfectly without stumble, and another 4 with PF models, ALL of which stumble some worse than others. I was told that the carb does have a circuit for WOT mixture enrichment. I was also informed the operator can pull the throttle back until a very small change in manifold pressure is seen in order to save fuel with minimum performance loss. Both pieces of info came from Russian sources directly, if that means anything. Mark Bitterlich _____ From: A. Dennis Savarese <dsavarese0812@bellsouth.net> Sent: Sunday, December 21, 2008 7:00:34 PM Subject: Re: Re: M14PEngines-List: Why would my Yak 52 m14p lose power? Mark, There are many, many M14P's, 360 HP engines that exhibit the throttle response hesitation. The problem is not limited to the PF engine only. The problem of throttle response hesitation can be reduced by changing the accelerator pump jet down to a smaller diameter. The smallest accelerator pump jet is .9 mm and I can say from experience, changing to the .9 mm jet does not totally eliminate the problem on those engines that exhibit the problem. I too have plugged many an accelerator pump jet to stop the hesitation problem on both P and PF engines. My opinion is, the accelerator pump jet provides additional fuel during WOT which helps to cool the cylinders (richer mixture). I'm not sure what the long term impact might be by plugging the accelerator pump jet.

I'll take some flames if necessary, but I feel I must point out that this mod was actually intended for fixing the throttle lag experienced in a lot of M-14PF model engines (400HP) and NOT for the M-14P model, which is the straight 360 HP engine. A normal M-14P engine should run perfectly WITHOUT needing this modification. Point number two. Something that has worked normally in the past, and then suddenly starts working abnormally, or in a way different from in the past is usually happening because something has changed and not because something needs to be modified. I think this problem meets that description. This particular engine lost power when throttled back. It did not stumble and falter when the throttle was advanced from idle on the deck. This does not sound like an accelerator pump issue.... ice possibly, water in the fuel, low fuel pressure, a tank venting problem, you name it... lots of possible causes, but I would be very hesitant to recommend the accel pump mod on ANY engine for the described problem. Respectfully, Mark Bitterlich N50YK. p.s. Run this by Sergei Boriak, or better yet Vladimir Yastremski... I think you will find they will agree. _____ From: Eddie Moran <eddiemoranii@yahoo.com> Sent: Saturday, December 20, 2008 11:18:38 AM Subject: Re: Re: M14PEngines-List: Why would my Yak 52 m14p lose power? David, << We're removing a plug to uncover the jet below it.>> Yes, #10 on the diagram is the plug (11mm) that you pull to get to the jet. The jet unscrews, comes out, has a little hole in it. You plug that somehow..(weld, JB, etc.). Then reinsert the jet and reinstall the 11mm plug. My engine ran much better after the mod with no noted lag in acceleration.

The following info came from Dennis a few years ago. See attached. Item #10 is a plug (11 mm I believe) and under the plug is the acceleration pump jet. The jet has a slot in it just like a slotted screw. Use a straight blade screwdriver to remove. Plug it and reinstall. The figure is attached.

Simply changing nose cases does not do it. The M14B was not intended for aerobatic use and needs some internal changes to allow for inverted operations. The accessory case drive and the oil pump are different. Be careful about these things. George Coy Coy Aircraft Sales 714 Airport Rd.

Dennis ----- Original Message ----- From: Yak Pilot To: m14pengines-list@matronics.com Sent: Sunday, December 21, 2008 10:01 PM Subject: Re: Re: M14PEngines-List: Why would my Yak 52 m14p lose power? Was not trying to disagree or start an argument with you Dennis . Just did not believe that this cure was applicable to the problem being described. Respectfully, I still do not. Regarding the stumble in throttle movement. I have talked to many people about this pressure carb. A lot of people think they have this thing fully figured out and I have some doubts there since their explanations seem to differ from the mechanics I have talked to that are Russians themselves and were trained in that country. I know that my personal understanding is much less than complete to put it mildly. I do not have the personal first hand experience to back this up, but from what I have seen one Russian do, it appears that the "P" model engines that I have seen stumble are usually able to be cured without plugging the accel pump. Some cases have required changing air bleed jets to values that "by the book" seemed to be rather extreme, but the change then allowed the accel pump jet to be pretty much left alone, or operated withinn normal ranges but never plugged. This is problematic in that this puts strong suspicion on proper operation of the diaphragms in that the engine was possibly over rich in the transition range to begin with. My comment about P vs. PF engines was not meant to imply that the problem could not happen with a P model, but that in every case I have seen it could be cured by exercising the complete range of adjustments possible with this carb, further that while it may have been tried and used successfully with the P model, that according to my sources, it was originally intended for the PF model where this problem happens more often. I am not sure who "invented" this mod.... Seems to me I was told once... might have been you, George Coy, I really am not sure. I hope someone chimes in regarding this so that if I am wrong on that point, I can be corrected. Given that there is no magic in how an engine burns fuel, and that there are a lot of P models that run perfectly without the accel jet plugged, it seems to me that an engine that does not run right has something out of adjustment (or just not working right internally) and does not need a carb design change. No question that the mod works on some engines, but to me it is a matter of robbing Peter to pay Paul. Bottom line, no one around here has a flow bench for these things that I know of, or has tried to truly tackle over-hauling one and then charting the flow curves on this side of the pond, and since the darn things are no longer in production, long term users may eventually switch to fuel injection anyway. While New Bern is not a big airport for Russian engines, we have had 5 aircraft with P model engines, all of which ran perfectly without stumble, and another 4 with PF models, ALL of which stumble some worse than others. I was told that the carb does have a circuit for WOT mixture enrichment. I was also informed the operator can pull the throttle back until a very small change in manifold pressure is seen in order to save fuel with minimum performance loss. Both pieces of info came from Russian sources directly, if that means anything. Mark Bitterlich ------------------------------------------------------ From: A. Dennis Savarese <dsavarese0812@bellsouth.net> To: m14pengines-list@matronics.com Sent: Sunday, December 21, 2008 7:00:34 PM Subject: Re: Re: M14PEngines-List: Why would my Yak 52 m14p lose power? Mark, There are many, many M14P's, 360 HP engines that exhibit the throttle response hesitation. The problem is not limited to the PF engine only. The problem of throttle response hesitation can be reduced by changing the accelerator pump jet down to a smaller diameter. The smallest accelerator pump jet is .9 mm and I can say from experience, changing to the .9 mm jet does not totally eliminate the problem on those engines that exhibit the problem. I too have plugged many an accelerator pump jet to stop the hesitation problem on both P and PF engines. My opinion is, the accelerator pump jet provides additional fuel during WOT which helps to cool the cylinders (richer mixture). I'm not sure what the long term impact might be by plugging the accelerator pump jet.

I'll take some flames if necessary, but I feel I must point out that this mod was actually intended for fixing the throttle lag experienced in a lot of M-14PF model engines (400HP) and NOT for the M-14P model, which is the straight 360 HP engine. A normal M-14P engine should run perfectly WITHOUT needing this modification. Point number two. Something that has worked normally in the past, and then suddenly starts working abnormally, or in a way different from in the past is usually happening because something has changed and not because something needs to be modified. I think this problem meets that description. This particular engine lost power when throttled back. It did not stumble and falter when the throttle was advanced from idle on the deck. This does not sound like an accelerator pump issue.... ice possibly, water in the fuel, low fuel pressure, a tank venting problem, you name it... lots of possible causes, but I would be very hesitant to recommend the accel pump mod on ANY engine for the described problem. Respectfully, Mark Bitterlich N50YK. p.s. Run this by Sergei Boriak, or better yet Vladimir Yastremski... I think you will find they will agree. ---------------------------------------------------- From: Eddie Moran <eddiemoranii@yahoo.com> To: m14pengines-list@matronics.com Sent: Saturday, December 20, 2008 11:18:38 AM Subject: Re: Re: M14PEngines-List: Why would my Yak 52 m14p lose power?

You plug that somehow..(weld, JB, etc.). Then reinsert the jet and reinstall the 11mm plug. My engine ran much better after the mod with no noted lag in acceleration.

Also, Monty, in your discussions with the Vendenyev guys, did you talk about the reverse loading deal?

    Back in May of 2007 there was a thread on Matronics M14 List about the Mani fold pressure that I was getting on my M14B.- I was getting about 905 mm Hg which seemed high.- Here is a response from Dennis on that subject. Eddie, What RPM are you seeing and what RPM are you setting with the prop governor? The M14P should develop about 880 MM (+,- 10) at sea level, on a standard day at WOT. 905 seems a bit high, but that could also be due to the accuracy or calibration of the manifold pressure gauge. What does the Manifold pressure gauge read with the engine shut down? Dennis"" I am wondering now if the "B" might really be putting out quite a bit more power? I think Dennis or George mentioned that the supercharger on a "B" was 8.65/1 instead of 8/1. Anyway, my Moose does not go inverted (at least on purpose) and the engine seems to be very strong.

Seems to me I was told once... might have been you, George Coy,- I really am not s ure.- I hope someone chimes in regarding this so that if I am wrong on th at point,---I can be corrected.-- Given that there is no magic in how an engine burns fuel, and that there are a lot of P models that run pe rfectly without the accel jet plugged, it seems to me that an engine that d oes not run right has something out of adjustment (or just not working right i nternally) and does not need a carb design change.- No question that the mod works on some engines, but to me it is a matter of robbing Peter to pay Paul.- =0A=0ABottom line, no one around here has a flow bench for these things that I know of, or has tried to truly tackle over-hauling one and th en charting the flow curves on this side of the pond, and since the darn th ings are no longer in production, long term users may eventually switch to fuel injection anyway.-- =0A=0AWhile New Bern is not a big airport for Russian engines,-we have had 5 aircraft with P model engines, all of whic h ran perfectly without stumble, and another 4 with PF models, ALL of which stumble some worse than others.- =0A=0A=0AI was told that the carb does have a circuit for WOT mixture enrichment.- I was also informed the opera tor can pull the throttle back until a very small change in manifold pressu re is seen in order to save fuel with minimum performance loss.- Both pie ces of info came from Russian sources directly, if that means anything.- =0A-=0AMark Bitterlich=0A-=0A=0A________________________________=0A=0AF rom: A.

    Here's the info I found from several different sources: M14P M14B Blower ratio: 8.16 to 1 8.65 to 1 Comp ratio: 6.3 to 1 6.2 to 1 HP: 290 continuous 300 continuous HP: 360 for 10 minutes 350 for 30 minutes A little higher blower ratio traded for a little lower compression ratio. Maybe so you can run it at the higher continuous power settings for a longer period?

Never confirmed personally, and I wish someone who knows for sure WOULD say so, but I also heard that the "B" ,model spins the blower harder. Not sure of the exact ratio but between the P and PF speed. Mark Bitterlich ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----- From: A.

The only reason that I am a little familiar with this is that we had several new M14B engines converted to M14PF engines for a customer a few years ago. The work was done at Motorstar, the Romanian factory. The were surprised at the many differences and commented that the internal accessory drive shafts and gears were much more substantial than the M14P shafts and gears. I also know that the few M14B instillations have had trouble with the oil pump fittings clearing the motor mounts. George Coy Coy Aircraft Sales 714 Airport Rd.

Dennis, I do not pretend to know all the differences between the engines, but I do know the M14P and M14B have a lot of differences including the carburetor. Simply changing nose cases does not do it. The M14B was not intended for aerobatic use and needs some internal changes to allow for inverted operations. The accessory case drive and the oil pump are different. Be careful about these things. George Coy Coy Aircraft Sales 714 Airport Rd.

Actually Mark, the JPI FS-450G is relatively inexpensive. Gulf Coast and Pacific Coast Avionics are/were offering a $175 mail-in rebate making the instrument about $305. LOTS of information for $305. Easy install. If you decide to order one, make sure you order the FS-450G because the "G" instrument includes the Floscan model 231 transducer.

This is proven by watching the JPI fuel flow instrument installed in my airplane as well as others. Dennis ----- Original Message ----- From: Yak Pilot To: m14pengines-list@matronics.com Sent: Sunday, December 21, 2008 10:01 PM Subject: Re: Re: M14PEngines-List: Why would my Yak 52 m14p lose power? Was not trying to disagree or start an argument with you Dennis . Just did not believe that this cure was applicable to the problem being described. Respectfully, I still do not. Regarding the stumble in throttle movement. I have talked to many people about this pressure carb. A lot of people think they have this thing fully figured out and I have some doubts there since their explanations seem to differ from the mechanics I have talked to that are Russians themselves and were trained in that country. I know that my personal understanding is much less than complete to put it mildly. I do not have the personal first hand experience to back this up, but from what I have seen one Russian do, it appears that the "P" model engines that I have seen stumble are usually able to be cured without plugging the accel pump. Some cases have required changing air bleed jets to values that "by the book" seemed to be rather extreme, but the change then allowed the accel pump jet to be pretty much left alone, or operated withinn normal ranges but never plugged. This is problematic in that this puts strong suspicion on proper operation of the diaphragms in that the engine was possibly over rich in the transition range to begin with. My comment about P vs. PF engines was not meant to imply that the problem could not happen with a P model, but that in every case I have seen it could be cured by exercising the complete range of adjustments possible with this carb, further that while it may have been tried and used successfully with the P model, that according to my sources, it was originally intended for the PF model where this problem happens more often. I am not sure who "invented" this mod.... Seems to me I was told once... might have been you, George Coy, I really am not sure. I hope someone chimes in regarding this so that if I am wrong on that point, I can be corrected. Given that there is no magic in how an engine burns fuel, and that there are a lot of P models that run perfectly without the accel jet plugged, it seems to me that an engine that does not run right has something out of adjustment (or just not working right internally) and does not need a carb design change. No question that the mod works on some engines, but to me it is a matter of robbing Peter to pay Paul. Bottom line, no one around here has a flow bench for these things that I know of, or has tried to truly tackle over-hauling one and then charting the flow curves on this side of the pond, and since the darn things are no longer in production, long term users may eventually switch to fuel injection anyway. While New Bern is not a big airport for Russian engines, we have had 5 aircraft with P model engines, all of which ran perfectly without stumble, and another 4 with PF models, ALL of which stumble some worse than others. I was told that the carb does have a circuit for WOT mixture enrichment. I was also informed the operator can pull the throttle back until a very small change in manifold pressure is seen in order to save fuel with minimum performance loss. Both pieces of info came from Russian sources directly, if that means anything. Mark Bitterlich ---------------------------------------------------- From: A.

Mark, There are many, many M14P's, 360 HP engines that exhibit the throttle response hesitation. The problem is not limited to the PF engine only. The problem of throttle response hesitation can be reduced by changing the accelerator pump jet down to a smaller diameter. The smallest accelerator pump jet is .9 mm and I can say from experience, changing to the .9 mm jet does not totally eliminate the problem on those engines that exhibit the problem. I too have plugged many an accelerator pump jet to stop the hesitation problem on both P and PF engines. My opinion is, the accelerator pump jet provides additional fuel during WOT which helps to cool the cylinders (richer mixture). I'm not sure what the long term impact might be by plugging the accelerator pump jet.

I'll take some flames if necessary, but I feel I must point out that this mod was actually intended for fixing the throttle lag experienced in a lot of M-14PF model engines (400HP) and NOT for the M-14P model, which is the straight 360 HP engine. A normal M-14P engine should run perfectly WITHOUT needing this modification. Point number two. Something that has worked normally in the past, and then suddenly starts working abnormally, or in a way different from in the past is usually happening because something has changed and not because something needs to be modified. I think this problem meets that description. This particular engine lost power when throttled back. It did not stumble and falter when the throttle was advanced from idle on the deck. This does not sound like an accelerator pump issue.... ice possibly, water in the fuel, low fuel pressure, a tank venting problem, you name it... lots of possible causes, but I would be very hesitant to recommend the accel pump mod on ANY engine for the described problem. Respectfully, Mark Bitterlich N50YK. p.s. Run this by Sergei Boriak, or better yet Vladimir Yastremski... I think you will find they will agree. -------------------------------------------------- From: Eddie Moran <eddiemoranii@yahoo.com> To: m14pengines-list@matronics.com Sent: Saturday, December 20, 2008 11:18:38 AM Subject: Re: Re: M14PEngines-List: Why would my Yak 52 m14p lose power? David, << We're removing a plug to uncover the jet below it.>> Yes, #10 on the diagram is the plug (11mm) that you pull to get to the jet. The jet unscrews, comes out, has a little hole in it. You plug that somehow..(weld, JB, etc.). Then reinsert the jet and reinstall the 11mm plug. My engine ran much better after the mod with no noted lag in acceleration.

The following info came from Dennis a few years ago. See attached. Item #10 is a plug (11 mm I believe) and under the plug is the acceleration pump jet. The jet has a slot in it just like a slotted screw. Use a straight blade screwdriver to remove. Plug it and reinstall. The figure is attached.
