The same is true at certain throttle settings on my O-200. However, one has to ask why it runs better. As Mark states below, carb heat improves the fuel distribution. However, it doesn't do that by heating the air. It improves distribution by disturbing the air flow, adding turbulance to the ai

You have probably seen mine at www.engalt.com/kr2.htm under the engine section. It worked good for me. Not so sure how well it would work with the Ellison carb. I had the updraft Zenith which necessitated an extended lower center section of the cowl so it was easy to run the air intake line unde

It really does not matter were the cooler is installed as long as you have high pressure on one side and low pressure on the other. That is the only way air will flow threw. The Revmaster VW I owned at > one time used a larger --- "Larry H." wrote: Air is > forced through it and just ends up in

My old Mooney has the oil cooler mounted in the face of the engine cowling in about the same place as where Mark's inlet is. The opening is rectangular to match the shape of the oil cooler though. Air is forced through it and just ends up inside the engine cowling (not ducted) on the back side o
