Title: Engine going lean at end of run.. fixed.
Post by: Paul Taylor on April 25, 2006, 06:44:34 PM

Here is the first post.

This is the results.
I changed the tank to a Hayes 3oz tank. Just put the clunk in and mounted it to the plane with the back kicked out about a 1/8 inch.

I put up two flights today. The first one went way lean due to wrong needle setting.
The next one I set the RPM dead on 8940. It held it steady. ( I sure love the ST NVA)
It still went a little lean at the end of the flight, but for only two laps. Just what I had hoped for.

It sure beat a full 3 or 4 minutes that it did before I changed the tank.

So the Hayes tank fixed my problem.

Thanks

The three ounce tank is not big enough for me.  Do they make them bigger and what sizes?  Also where do you get them?  DOC Holliday

I got this one from Sig, just because I had ordered a few other odds and ends. But I think Towerhobbies.com has and Brodaks.
