So tell me, if you don't have a FAST card ( or a parachute ) what
exactly is there to do for a newbie at All Red Star?
The daily rate seems a little steep if you only get to watch.

Help! Recently acquired a YAK 52. It is registering a high cylinder head temperature
of 200 to 205 Celsius on initial climb out and standard climb. It does
level out at about 180 Celsius at cruise. This is with the gill shutters wide
open on a cool day. Being new YAK owners, we are at a loss. We have been told
that this is high. It is a very low time engine. We have tried richening
the fuel mixture. But, with no change. Also, the aneroid altitude compensation
valve. Also no change. Has anyone ever had this happen? Does anybody have
any suggestions. Does anyone know who would be the best person to contact
concerning this? We have heard there is someone who can bench set the carbs.
Perhaps, this will have to be done. Does anyone have this persons name and/or
phone number. Could this be a timing problem? Could someone advise us of the
procedure for timing? We do have some manuals. The Colorado Pak has been
a great help to us and we do appreciate it. This is got us stumped and a pain
in the "tail". Besides, a few bugs, this has really been the only real problem
we have had. We would like to expand our cry for help to the greater YAK world.
Thanks,

Walt I went last year not even as an owner and spent the entire time
as a GIB in my brother's CJ and had a ball! It's what convinced me
to buy my YAK 52. This year I am going as owner, but since I'm on the
east coast my 52 is staying here and I still be in my brother's CJ
this time with a lot more front seat time, as I start to get FAST
qualified. Part of the reason for events like these is to introduce
pilots, to formation, and to start the learning process. The ground
school is excellent and you'll get some really knowledgeable guys in
your back seat. However, you do need a chute. Allen Silver is going
to be there and if you give him a call maybe he can hook you up with
a chute to be there when you arrive. I don't think you'll be
disapointed.

Have you tried calibrating the Temp Gages, Check your Manual also and see
what the Limits are.

Do both the front and rear cockpit instruments read the same? 200 to 205C
is normal on climb out and will not hurt your engine. 180 is pretty good
for cruise. Although you say the gill shutters are wide open, make sure the
cable sleeve is not sliding in the bracket just behind the shutters. Push
and pull on it to make darn sure it is not sliding. A sliding cable sleeve
will cause the shutters to partially close during flight. Something you'll
never know until you check the cable sleeve mounting.
If you want to really learn how to properly maintain your Yak 52, you should
consider taking my maintenance training course. You can read about it on my
web site, www.yak-52.com. We also teach you how to properly time your
engine.

Rick,Jeff
Your 52 is acting normally. Paint your CHT gauge with the limits of
yellow (100 to 130), green (130 to 185) and yellow again on the top end
(185 to 225).
I never run anywhere near the top end of 225 and I'm in the Mojave
Desert...... So if you're below 225 it's all good. If you're still
worried about high cyl temps per American standards then just change
your oil regularly and run an upper cylinder lubricant like MMO :)

What pitch angle for climb (12 deg) and airspeed (160-170 kil/hr -about 103
mph) are you climbing out at? Also what % rpm and manifold pressure
(advance for the Russian purist) are you climbing out using.
Truthfully, 200 deg C is not a temp I worry about for a short time. It is
normal to see that temp on climb out. The Russian manual states you can
operate the engine for up to 10 min at 275 deg C (actually up to 15 min).
Not that I want to see that but can if the shutters close on you while
climbing out because the friction lever is not set tight enough.
Do you have a YAK-52 handbook? If not go to www.flyredstar.com and order
one. Can also download the checklist from www.yak-52.com. I will be happy
to mail you a copy of mine also. Mine is in kilometers/hr but the
conversion is easy.
