I have to pump the devil out of it and if I turn on the electric fuel pump it just dies. It starts perfectly when cold or cool. A friend suggested a shroud around the fuel pump with a piece of scat tubing. If that is the answer, is anyone making the shroud? Thanks, Phil ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 03:07:40 PM PST US Subject: Re: RV6-List: Hard starting From: Genev E Reed --> RV6-List message posted by: Genev E Reed Phil: I have the O360 also, On hot restarts I have to start it with Throtle off, Mixture off and crank till it fires and then push the mixture in. If you knew this just disregard.

I have set the flap up position where the control stops in the up position ok...but going down it will go to about 60 degrees before it stops on its own. How do you adjust the travel to stop at 40 degrees? Did I miss something about adjusting flap stops...? Maybe microswitches are needed? Any help will be appreciated Thanks Doyal N246dp
