Subject: Re: reverse prop rotation at shut down
Ricardo,
Thanks for your reply.
I have checked the "P" leads with an ohmmeter and they check good. A bore
scope revealed nothing abnormal in the cylinders.
I let the engine idle for a minute or two prior to shutdown in order to
cool any "hot spots"
Most of the time I don't have this reverse problem. It is a once in
awhile thing usually related to higher engine rpm at shutdown when I am not
focusing on it.
This is kind of similar to the on going problem of a friend's Paradise
P-1. His engine has a vibration at cruise rpm that we can't "nail down" We
have gone thru the carbs,engine mounts,airframe,rebuilt gearbox twice,changed
the prop,plugs,.....etc. The "ghost in the machine" I guess.
I can live with my problem as it is controllable but that constant
vibration at cruise would drive me nuts !
