All is well now, I made the assumption earlier that since i balanced injectors initially to the best of my ability that it must be something else causing rough running at lop operations. I was questi ...

Thanks all, I just went ahead and ordered one from afp, I got kind of anxious to complete this now, will let you know results.

After getting all holders aligned and doing some flight testing I’ve found it has made a significant difference for tuning injectors. I’ve gotten down to where I haven’t been able to run smooth ...

I just cleaned real well and clocking and torque worked out to be at correct location.

I found I had the orifice holders clocked opposite what they should have been, so clocked the vent side away from ram air but wasn’t noticeably different. Of course maybe now I need to retune orifi ...

Ok thanks for the info, I’ll be taking a closer look at this.

Wondering how critical it is for the ‘A’ to be pointed ‘down’ since that in itself is relative to the slight angle of the injector body. Could it be that some injectors are receiving ram pres ...

Also, make sure your injector nozzles all have the air bleed hole in the
proper location,
and I've found with a group of other people that especially on #2, that
air bleed being
directly in the ...

I’m running iridium plugs with dual ei and should have mentioned flying lower altitudes also. My light speed ei came with denso slant ground, have tried some different plugs but seem to get best p ...

Is there a relationship between heat range of plugs and running lop and what would be the science behind that either way? I mean lop operation usually means throttling back(?) which reduces map which ...

I’ve used the stock valve in my 6, it got stiff on me once but disassembled and lubed, no problem since. Using the stock valve on my 10 and no problems, using the red pointer knob.

Will be leaving early for sun n fun wondering about finding an airport near and within walking distance of a golf course on my way down. Route will be say Indianapolis to Atlanta to Lakeland. Any expe ...

Sounds like you’re getting exactly what you need.

I had a 2.5 inch spacer for my oil filter adapter thinking that would clear space for the alternator but after getting the alternator spacing kit found out I neeeded to shorten the oil adaptor by half ...

That was too easy Phil, looks just right.

I’ve been looking for a check valve where can you get one with low psi?

I’ve always heard that linseed oil does a good job protecting metal from rusting/corroding when put on properly, that is wiping off the excess . Dousing a rag and pushing and pulling it through th ...

Hi Dave

I'd be interested in pix. I am not sure I can put a WAAS antenna in the console due to depth issues. It may be tight mounting with a 90 degree BNC connector.

Les,
The antenna ends up ...

I have had a non waas antenna mounted under engine cowl in my 6 for 13 years with no dropouts or problems. In my 10 I put them both in the Aerosport overhead. I'm not flying yet but I can tell you ...
