It has always been a weak subject of mine. I'm installing a Garmin G3X touch with a few of the other gizmos associated with it in my Yak-52W. When the master comes on, the PFD will power on along with the engine monitoring information. Garmin offers a GAD 27 which allows for voltage stabilization for start. My question is, I shouldn't need that for my setup since the electrical power is used to open the start valve and power the shower of sparks, right? Those two items shouldn't cause voltage spikes, correct? I believe the GAD 27 voltage stabilization is for those who use conventional electrical starters with high draw, etc. Can someone please set me straight? Thanks!

You may also want to check for intake leaks if it's inconsistently holding power a t a constant throttle and prop rpm setting when taxiing or airborne. Final ly, when trying to go to idle power, if you have carb ice, it will stay at higher rpm even with throttle at idle until the icing clears. (instead of 2 8% it can be as high as 42% and won't go lower) Jason Bialek used to own Yak 55m 326JB based at KAWO (still having seller's regrets, but happy for new owner) ________________________________ From: owner-yak-list-server@matronics.com on behalf of Jason .

I have bee n having an erratic throttle lever to power setting issue (lever position n ot matching power output). Suspecting the throttle cable is the issue. Any one ever encounter this?
