The spinner went into the paint shop Friday morning so I had to install the prop and spinner Saturday morning before I left for Oshkosh. I stopped at Madison Co OH for fuel and maps then headed for Oshkosh. I flew at 8500' with 21.5 MAP and 2720 rpm indicating 165 and had a GS of 175Kts. I flew past a thunderstorm 50 miles west of Valpraiso IN and came upon another one running south from Chicago as far as I could see. I landed at VPZ for fuel and to check the weather. After the storm passed, I taxied to 27 behind other aircraft that had stopped for weather and when I opened the throttle for take off the engine was down 100 rpm and was running very rough. After 2 days fixing the right mag and finding plugs for the electronic ignition I waited another 2 days for weather to allow me to get to Oshkosh. I was in the air and flew into OSH after 20 mi nutes holding at Ripon and 10 minutes at Rush Lake. I stayed at Oshkosh until Friday and flew home with one fuel stop. The Tailwind ran better than ever.
