Thanks Walt. I won't attempt to speculate on the over priming, but because
of the possibility of hydraulic lock from fuel I pull the prop thru about 3
-4 times after each prime... even on thru flights. JB

Hi Jon;
The CJ primer is essentially identical to it=99s Russian counterpart.
It is the CJ fuel system that is different in that the Emergency fuel supp
ly is provided by a hand operated wobble pump. As a result there is no need
for the second function of the primer unit (Emergency fuel pump). With the
simple addition of a jumper line (by the factory) connecting the two outpu
t ports it became an engine primer only from either side. No, it does
not change the output fuel quantity.
Could be converted to work in the =9852 system by simply removing the
jumper.
After reading about Bill Dykes starting problems I wonder if over-priming m
ay have something to do with it and if everyone involved is fully aware of
the danger of hydraulic lock from that source.

With all the discussion about the primer on a YAK... I have this question a
bout the primer on the CJ: How does rotating the primer counterclockwise or
clockwise on a CJ differ? I'd heard that clockwise doubles the amount of f
uel...true? JB

Update
Checked spark at ignition coil wire, great bright blue spark up to 1/2 inch
away from engine block so don't think that is the problem. Cleaned all con
tacts inside the cap and points
So, now I will check the plug gaps as noted above. How do I check to make s
ure the spark from the coil wire is getting to the plugs?
Don't think it's a fuel problem either, gets plenty of gas coming out of in
take drain after priming
Stumped!!!!!!!!

Pull the prop through about 9-12 times (3 bladed prop).
Then prime.
Then Start.
If you really want to get a work out...
Pull the prop through
Then prime one shot
pull a blade
then prime one shot
pull a blade
then prime one shot
pull a blade
Then start.
Either works if the engine is timed right and you haven't over/under
primed.
The engine should start after two blades have gone by or you have done
something wrong in the process/engine is not setup correct.

Update
Followed the starting procedure found in "the Definitive Pilots Operating Handbook"
which is in part a translation of the Russian Handbook
Basically, one prime pump for every 10 degrees below 100 degrees C
So, this morning it was 68 degrees with an overnight low of 48
8 prime pumps while turning the prop, got in the plane, primed the system side
4 times, fired up immediately! Took 2 people but worth it
I also followed one of the responders suggestion to gap the plugs to .018
So, that would suggest to me that it is not a serious timing or bad component problem,
more likely a fuel/air mixture, cold engine issue
Thanks to all

Last year on a particularly chilly California morning, (yes, we do have
them) I had a terrible time starting my M-14P. So seeking wisdom from the
fount of all M-14P knowledge, I called Vladimir Yastremski in hopes of
learning some crafty technique.
Upon hearing my problem, Vlad sighed wearily, "Bleetz, vat can I say? It'z
pilot error. Book saz, below 53 degrees must preheat oil. Buy heating pads
for sump and oil tank. Problem solved."
I did and it was.

Subject: | Remote oil filter |
Hi All,
All the talk on another thread here has me thinking about our own Yak-52 here in
New Zealand.
It gets a bit chilly here in Christchurch during winter with temperatures often
dipping into the negatives (Celsius). We have managed to mostly get the hang
of starting the thing in these temperatures, but often it takes a few goes.
A few of the guys on here have mentioned that they have engine heating pads on
their aircraft. Could I please ask you to take some pictures and ether post them
here or email me? I am interested in getting maybe getting some too.
Also, does anyone have a remote filter on their Yak? As an engineer I shiver at
the thought of basically unfiltered oil circulating around my engine. One of
the DC3's I looked after has the Air Wolf kit fitted and boy does it work!
I would get one of them or maybe one of Craig Payne's ones today, but I can't
find a spot suitable to mount it. Again, can someone please post or mail a picture
or two?
Many thanks
Chris

Here is the installation of a remote filter on my Nanchang - I'm sorry but I forget
exactly where the main part was sourced, but we fabricated the mounting plate.
Also, sorry the pictures are so big, but too hard to edit smaller!

Subject: | CJ6 gross weight |
What is the correct gross weight for the CJ? I have been using 3080 as the conversion
from kilograms in my Chinese manual. I just re-done my weight and balance
and several other users are using 3200 lbs. I have also heard of people using
3500 pounds. Seems to me like comic book math and Moondust but seriously
if it is a higher number it would certainly make life a lot easier any answers?
