![]() "Chuck" wrote in message ... Hi, all, First, I want to thank everyone who made suggestions. Gary, a compression check was done on all cylinders and the compression is fine. The power for a full-power static runup should be 2065 to 2165 with the mixture leaned for max rpm. The actual rpm is about 2150. I think this is the most significant thing said. There is no way that the engine should give higher revs on the static check, than on the takeoff roll, unless something is making a 'difference' between the configuration. I see latter, that you say you lean for the power check, but not the take-off roll. The obvious question at this point, is what altitude the field is at?. If it is below perhaps 3000 feet, then the difference, together with the noise reported really solidly implies that the injection is running rich at it's default settings. If you are higher than this, then you should really be considering leaning for takeoff. snipped Aaron Coolidge, your comment about the fuel injection is also interesting. I will certainly ask our mechanic to check it (since the plane is in for its annual anyways). I did not, however, notice loss of power, but at minimum rpm (with the throttle full out) it does not idle very well -- it feel like it's going to stop. Rich... George Patterson, you say it's running way to rich. I was wondering way you say this, but you just may be right. To correct this I Once again, thanks to everyone. Chuck I think George has hit the nail on the head. Best Wishes |
