Those that answered sticky valve.... How does a rise to a hot cht get in
line with this?
Only way for the cht to rise is for the mixture to lean right?
I would expect a sticky valve to lower the temp.

Mike,
My thoughts are that the exhaust gases from the other cyl(s) are entering
cyl #4 through the stuck open valve.
With the exhaust valve stuck open no cooling from the intake air (fuel) will
take place as there will be no suction to pull it in.

Don,
I've had the same problems. GET RID OF THE 386 PLUGS..... If you look at
the #4 cylinder
plugs, you will see that the ceramic has been damaged, actually melted! And
with them glowing
you have pre-ignition problems, causing back-firing into the intake
manifold, causing ALL
cylinders to misfire. (BTW, immediately pulling the mixture, counting to
three, pushing it back
in, will "put out" the glow plug effect, and save your cylinder...).
Put in aviation plugs, preferably REM 37BY (or is it REM 38 BY) in all
cylinders. It means a
new harness, or at least new terminations, but it will solve the problem.
My carbureted O-320 with 9:1 pistons had the exact same problems. I
initially thought that it was the
ignitions systems. But close examination of the plugs (even new ones)
revealed the
pre-ignition problem. I tried everything - full mixture, aux pump ON, full
throttle (even pumped the
throttle), mag check - all the standard emergency procedures, nothing seemed
to work. I finally
started pulling the mixture to cut-off immediately when I started getting
the rough engine. Wait
3 seconds, then pushed it in, and vola! the problem went away!

Folks, Any help would be appreciated. Having said that, Ed Holyoke's
situation is much more dire than mine so help him first (he is
traveling,
I am at my home airport).
Plane specifics: RV-6, 0-320-B2C, Fixed pitch Sensenich, Jeff Rose
ignition on the right firing Autolite 386 Auto plugs in the bottom of
each
cylinder, Slick Mag on the left firing the top aircraft plugs, New
carb at
overhaul, 240hours SMOH.
I was flying the other day for about 1/2 hour when out of the blue the
engine started running extremely rough. Mag check and fuel switch
yielded
the same result. All cylinder temps were in the norm except for #4
which
went very hot (512 degrees on the CHT). All other cylinders were a
little
warmer than normal but not much...I think the hottest was 320 degrees.
I
wish I had the presence of mind to also notice the EGT's but I
didn't....focus was on #4 CHT and getting my butt on the ground.
At full throttle the plane would only muster 120 MPH. As soon as I had
the
airport made and pulled power for landing, everything smoothed out. It
was
instantaneous with pulling power. After landing and taxi back to the
ramp
I did a run up and had full RPM with not even a hint of a miss.
The next day I did a compression check. All cylinder OK except for
#4...
80/65. At annual just about a month ago this cylinder was my lowest
but
was at 80/70. I was concerned then but my IA friend told me that I
shouldn't worry too much about it but to keep an eye on it. Other
three
cylinders 80/78, 80/79, 80/78.
I am totally baffled. I suspected an air leak but found none. I was
worried about detonation but the top of the piston looks great...no
pitting. The cylinder walls look good also. The compression test
revealed
that the leak seems to be mostly from the intake but the exhaust is
leaking also.
How do I troubleshoot? I am tempted to fly the plane again (close to
the
airport) but I am spooked. I would love to know what happened and have
a
fix before heading into the sky. Thanks in advance for any/all
ideas.....don

I "think" that a sticky exhaust valve would leak the burning air/fuel charge
into the exhaust system and result in higher EGT.

OK, then following this logic you would expect that to run hotter than
the other cylinders? Hmmmm. I don't know if I buy that. I also don't
know a damn thing about sticking valves. Just using my common sense
here. A sticking valve causing a rough engine... ie the offending
cylinder is not firing. I can not imagine that that offending cylinder
would run hotter in CHT that the rest when it is not firing efficiently.

I agree 100%. Those plugs are no good in a Lycoming. Its too cold of
a plug. I use the plugs Klaus recommends with my Electroair; they are
the Denso W27ESR-U with adapters. There is an equivalent NGK that I
now use (I forget the number) that are a cross-reference plug to the
Denso's. I used to change them at every oil change, but found that
was unnecessary. I change them now during annual.

I believe BR9ES is the NGK equivalent to the Denso W27EMR-C, not sure about
the W27ESR-U. Double check me on that. Klaus sells the W27EMR-C and
W24EMR-C plugs last time I looked.
I use NGK BR8ES (5422) plugs with my Lightspeed Plasma II on my RV-7,
IO-360-A1B6, 8.7:1. I have had great performance and no problems with the
BR8ES plugs. They're available at just about any auto parts store. I found
the cheapest source to be Pep Boys at $1.79 each.

Leaner can be a lower temperature depending on how lean.
The problem with a sticking valve is that the burn is not controlled but
goes out thru the exhaust valve for a longer time. This heats up the
cylinder head to a higher temp. Head doesn't get a chance to cool.

Using the smooth lower cowl and firewall forward kit from Vans which has
a fiberglass filtered air inlet plenum made for a Bendix fuel injector - hence
flat face mating surface with four bolt holes. Several questions:

of several builders who have placed a wye on the FM inlet and used one branch

adding a hole in the lower cowl and I'm looking for other solutions.

I used some silicone tank baffle material and clamped it on.

Hi,
Is this a fairly common upgrade to the RV8? Where I fly we
have a lot of grass strips, but I've never had any trouble
with the Warrior I currently fly. Will the standard wheel
pants fit with these bigger wheels and tires?
Thanks,
Mickey

If you have a sticking exhaust valve there is no burn in that cyl because on
the intake stroke the intake valve opens exposing the cyl to the lower
pressure in the intake. At this point the intake is contaminated with
exhaust gases flowing passed the "stuck" exhaust valve from the higher
pressure exhaust system to lower pressure intake system. This will cause the
other cyl to perform poorly as well. Not to mention the intake charge in the
suspect cyl is far from optimum. Now, on the compression stroke the piston
will push whatever is left in the cyl out the stuck valve. At that time
there is nothing left in the cyl to burn which would not explain a high cyl
head temp.
So in my opinion the higher CHT does not indicate a stuck valve.
I am not an expert I just play one on the internet.

This question is directed more toward my 6/6A brethren who are flying their
creations.
If you were in my shoes, where I am just about to take my 6A to the airport,
would you replace the vertical stab and rudder with a 7/7A version prior to
getting everything completed? Those of you that are flying the 6/6A, do you
ever wish you had more rudder authority? Is the tendency to fishtail that
apparent with the 6/6A vertical stab and rudder?

No way! It's fine just the way it is.

During the past 7.5 years of flying my RV, there was only one time that I
wish I had a larger rudder. The wind was 080 degrees to the runway and
gusts were 38 knots.

Call Honeywell @ 1-913-782-0400, ask receptionist for ext 1082 and tell
the person that answers that you need to speak with someone for
technical assistance on a KX125. Let us know about your experience with
Honeywell.
