Static RPM in '74 Archer?
My partners and I have all noticed that takeoff roll and climb in our Archer
is a bit long and anemic, respectively. The partner who has had a share the longest has said that normal TO RPM has always been around 2,250. One of us recently flew a Cherokee 180 (same engine) that climbed much better and got over 2,500 RPM during TO. We have roughly 1,500 SMOH on the engine, and compressions are all in the 70's. Someone on the Piper group suggested that the muffler might be plugged. The POH says nothing about normal static RPM. Any thoughts? -- Bob (Chief Pilot, White Knuckle Airways)
