I'm still having oil running down the belly. I ran the engine at full power today for a full hour just to see the fuel burn, plus another hour and a half before I landed and saw the most oil I've had so far all over the bottom. It threw it down to three quarts from a start of 7 and 1/2.... Seems someone wrote about having a new top overhaul and theirs quit the oil throwing. I had a professional mechanic do a compression check on my engine after I landed and every cylinder is 80/80 or so close it was not worth worrying about...worse one was 78. Seems if I start out at 9 quarts it only throws out about one every two hours. The mechanic also told me to try using straight shell 50w. I'm using exxon 20/50. Anyone have any other good ideas. This oil throwing is driving me up a wall. I live at 6600 msl but climbed up to 17,600 msl today. It is much higher than my tri pacer would ever go. and I was up there within 30 minutes not even trying. We sure have great airplanes. ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 10:01:11 PM PST US From: "nico css" Subject: RE: Rocket-List: Are you sure? 10,000 in 30 minutes? That sounds wrong. That's the pace a Piper Colt climbs at (not above 8,000 but still). -----Original Message----- From: owner-rocket-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-rocket-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of laboggan@mywdo.com Sent: Thursday, February 07, 2008 6:49 PM Subject: Rocket-List: Had another great day of flying my bullet...ie Rocket.
