Thanks for all the input on the Posa carb. My decision, based on the info
received, is to stick with the zenith that I have. It worked fine on my type
4 VW and should serve equally on my replacement type 3 engine. That said,
Anyone out there in need of a Posa,...make an offer.

Bad idea for the POSA. It leaks gas, on purpose, and I don't think that
dumping gas on top of a hot engine is a good idea. Steve Bennett did this
with an Ellison. Also, you cannot use a fuel pump with a POSA.
There are planes flying with the POSA, but there are many more in the trash
can, wh
Hello Pat
I ran a Posa carb for several years. I even ran it on top of the engine
during one test. First of all, please see
http://kr-2.aviation-mechanics.com/alert.htm The information may or may
not apply to any Posa that you decide to use. I ran a Supercarb because it
had mixture adjust

I'm just getting set up one more time around
to get my KR1 going and have most of my
engine parts to reassemble it. I'm going to
use my posa to get it running and we'll see
how it works this time, it won't take much
for me to delegate it to the boat anchor

That is why I use an Ellison. And I agree about the EGT. It is a good to

I imagine this is an old story with success
and horror tales but I gather they can be
made to work. I'm probably buying an
Aerocarb but will give the posa another
shot as I keep hearing and reading about
some success stories and am interested
in feedback both pro and con

Well, since it's Friday I guess it's OK to whip a dead horse a little. My
only experience with the POSA is not first-hand really; it's with my friend
Paul Martin's KR-2.
