(Patrick Pulis) ________________________________ Message 1 _____________________________________ Time: 01:38:02 PM PST US From: Sean Stephens Subject: Re: RV10-List: Wet Dog Syndrome On Shutdown After testing the other night at the hangar, the idle mixture was too rich at about 150 rpm, rise. I got it set correctly now at 50 rpm rise. That helped a little on the shutdown shake. But... I discovered another issue that I thought I'd tackled a while ago. The top passenger side engine mount seems to be "knocking" again. Early on it was doing this and I had found out I needed another washer because the nut was running out of threads and wouldn't fully "Stack up" with the spacer inside the Lord mount. Well, know that the shutdown is cleaner I can now hear the knocking again. I think it is the spacer inside the mount hitting the sides of the durometer inside. At least that's the only thing I can think of it doing. I don't know if it's an alignment issue or what, because it is only the one mount, not all four. I placed my hand on the mount when it was at idle and you can feel the knocking. It also resonates through the engine mount and you can hear it inside the cabin. I have a call into Lord to ask some questions. I am wondering if I need the J-3804-28 (which has a different silicone/rubber wrapped spacer inside) instead of the J-3804-20. I am hoping I don't as they are about $250 each. I just can' figure out why only one is having the issue. Unless it's the weak link and is flexing the most during idle/start/shutdown. -Sean #40303 (it never ends) > Kelly McMullen > June 15, 2016 at 5:20 AM > It means not all cylinders quit firing at the same time.
