Is there a chance that the throttle cable is loose somewhere allowing it
to buckle then release?
That could really suck if you were powered down on final and needed to
do a go-around!

Just a thought.

Today, after I started by Turbo Arrow III (TCM TSIO-360-FB), I set
throttle to 1000 RPM (as normal). The engine sound a little "funny".
About 60 seconds later, the engine roared to 1700 RPM on its own and I
had to pull the throttle back quite a bit to get back to 1000 RPM.
Run-ups, later on, seemed fine.


Could be a lot of things, but I'm guessing it's as simple as a couple of
plugs (on different cylinders) being damp, or maybe a couple of lifters
slow to pump up. Mine tends to do the same thing, although usually only
for about 10 seconds.

Right now, I wouldn't worry about it. If you start having problems with
the runup, or other indications of less than full power available - OR
it
starts to take longer and longer to "settle down" then it needs to be
checked. But at the moment it doesn't sound (purely personal opinion
here)
like anything of concern.
