I have a friend that had his 360 overhauled. When it came back, it flew fine for about 100-hours then the prop would go to high RPM. The cause was found to be the rear plug was not seated properly. A tool was fabricated by one of his machinist friends and the plug was seated. That was over 1,000 flying hours ago without any additional prop going to high RPM without the blue knob being pushed forward.
