Dick,

The hesitation at 1100-1200 rpms in a C-85 is normal. I have it on mine (275
smh with 0-200 conversion stc) as do most of my Luscombe brethren with the
C-85.

I recently had an exhaust valve to stick in flight. It was interesting to
say the least, and in reaction to that experience I would like to pursue a
glider rating ;-).

My valve in my 275 hour ECI cylinder was stuck but good. My engine guy
reamed it out a little as he thought the clearance was a little tight. MMO
is now part of my regular maintenance routine.

Hey Debby, it's been far too long. Does the gang still get together
Saturday afternoons at JZP? Gotta catch up.
