Subject: | Re: Engine problems, stuck in Red Bluff, CA |
Hello Everyone,
Fortunately I'm back home.
My problem turned out to be an induction system leak through the
primer system. I was able to make a temporary fix by disabling the
primer and fly it home after a few hours delay for troubleshooting.
Thanks everyone for the suggestions.
Sonja
