Stephen, The fully programmable ignition system may need some help to set the mixture. A simpler way is to install an Oxygen sensor in the exhaust system to feed a Mixture Meter aka Air/Fuel Ratio (AFR). Then you can set the mixture exactly to what you want it to be in real time while flying for any power setting and any altitude. (Assuming you do have a manual mixture control somewhere in the fuel system.) No more waiting to see which cylinder peaks first and other such antiquated methods.
Sid Wood Tri-gear KR-2 N6242 Mechanicsville, MD, USA smw...@md.metrocast.net ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ...I have just decided to break from my original edict and purchase a fully programmable ignition system instead of keeping everything stock. This will allow me to program my A/F ratio and ignition advance or retard at any RPM , any boost, and any load. Something a modern "certified" aircraft engine could never hope to do. But weather I make 10000 hours or not even 10, people believe what they want, and that is just the way it is. So if you think you can do it better and or different then get after it. Change will happen. Stephen Teate Paradise, Texas Stephen Teate Paradise, Texas
