Continental A-65 engine stall?

The Aeronca muff often involved a deflector plate, attached to a small
strut across the pipe vee, that prevented the air from travelling
straight across the chamber from the inlet to the outlet. The
deflector made the air flow around the pipes to get from one side to
the other. Lots more heat. Does your have that?

Aha! No, mine do not have anything inside them. The only thing that
deflects any air is the exhaust pipes...this might be something to
investigate

the taxiway, the engine quit. It's never done that before. Re-started
fine. Did not quit when I returned to my home airport. Maybe the
turbulence was enough to fix it

Scott, it just wanted to make sure it got a short breather before you
launched into that headwind home. Glad you didn't get beat up too bad
on the way back. Matt

Hi Matt,
Well, it was kind of a handful. Fortunately, myself nor the aeroplane
was damaged It was one of those "wild ride" days even though it sure
looked pretty nice!
