I got to fly my single place with 503 for the first time since last year ! It felt really great. She flies beautifully but there are a couple of things that bother me.
The first is....when she sits for more than one week, don't even try to start her until you drop the carb bowls & empty out the oil saturated gas in them. Then she will start just fine.
The 2 banjo fittings, with the check balls in them ,on the oil pump, are still leaking though.
Anyone else ever have this problem ????
The other thing is ....both EGTs read a solid 900 degress & the CHTs get to 350. Does this sound like I need smaller main jets ? The factory installed main jets are .158 .
Sounds like they are too rich.....What do you think ? Thanks
