Default RE: RCV 58CD Prop and run-in questions

This is nice to hear and in line with everything I have heard about these engines. The prop shaft does have some movement in it. Not much, but more than what it had when I was running it in. And if I had to guess, the additional noise seems to correspond to the looseness in the chaft. Except for the lack of oil everywhere, this does sound similar to your issue. I love this thing because it fits so compact and fits so well in cowls and I really prefer 4-stroke engines. I do nto blame RCV for this. I do think it was my issue totally.

Thanks for the advice!

Tom
