    Subject: first engine failure, need help
    rv6-list@matronics.com --> RV4-List message posted by: Rvmils@aol.com Well, I had my first engine failure and landed without incident. I need some help trouble shooting this one. On takeoff at FPR, at about 800 AGL, the engine lost most of its power. It was a sputter, followed my an almost shut down. It reminded me of the time I was setting up my fuel flow on the RMI and ran a tank try. I check the boost, it was confirmed on, mixture rich, and switch tanks. No luck. I jockeyed the throttle and mixture on the down wind, just to see if I could get more power and still no luck. I landed rwy 32 with no problems and after a few sputters to taxi clear, the engine completely shut down on the runway. I tried to restart on the ramp and the 3 year old battery also decided to quit. My plane is normally hangared, right now I'm doing my CFI at Aviator and the 4 has been left out for a week with half tanks. I thought it might had been fuel contamination or moisture, but the full cup samples I took after the long push to the ramp showed no problems with the fuel. No samples were inspected prior to the flight. It took about a minute to land and I was thinking that if it were water in the line it would have cleared and fired back up, but I've also heard that fuel injectors are more sensitive to water. Where to start, first thing tomorrow, after I order a new battery, I'll pull the filters and purge the system, but other than that I don't know what it could be. My system is an 0360, Bendix injector, and airflow performance boost/filter setup. I do have the RMI fuel flow transducer between the injector and flowdivider/spider. If anyone has any ideal where else I could look, please advise. Thanks, Carey Mills RV4 310 hours
