Re: Engine quitting at idle, goes below 500 rpm

I had the same problems with only one marginal cylinder, still in the green (on the visual scale it appeared to still yield 65% of the full compression). Replacing this one cylinder solved the issue. I just overhauled the engine on the engine analyzer page, and the problem is fixed. I read your pos...

Engine quitting at idle, goes below 500 rpm

Starting yesterday,. I am experiencing the engine quitting at idle speed, drops below 500 rpm and quits. Using Fine wire plugs, mag check is fine as well as engine inspection, no problems found. Only thing I see is #6 compression is slighty low, but still in green. Idle is rough, before it quits. An...

Last update Hobbs hours and fine wire plugs

I noticed since the last update, I lost all the hours I had on the same livery and also my fine wire plugs were removed. Is that normal?

Re: Press to Test - Indicator lamps

Put you mouse over the bulb, press left mouse button and hold it down, and then press the right mouse button at the same time.

Re: Comanche ground effect and Landing

I have had pretty good luck with slowing the approach to 80 mph rather than 90, unless I am at max gross weight.

Re: Electric fuel pump and fuel flow

That he's talking about the fuel flow gauge and not the fuel pressure gauge. How is the fuel going to flow prior to engine start? I was wondering the same thing but that is what he was asking about. If I saw fuel flowing with the engine off, I would be looking for my fire extinguisher.

Re: No TDS 750 after update

The PMS GTN 750 works fine, so it must be something with the TDS.

Re: Procedure for stopping the engine?

Haha - no prob, to be fair, with this piston engine stuff it is so much the default that any exception should be in a red box. :D It is (almost) always the mixture that is used to kill the engine, stuff that you would not be looking from the manual at all, once properly introduced into such kind of...

Re: Wheel Spin in parking position with wheel chocks

I have never given any aircraft I fly, full throttle with wheel chocks in place. What is the point?
