Perry Carb Replacement
Most of you heard of my WM P51 crash right before Christmas due to radio failure. I had a G90 in it with a Perry Carb #4500
Today, I just ran up the engine in my replacement plane (Kyosho Texan) to see how it would run first time since the crash.
Dial in the top end was great. Could not get the low end to come around as it was before. Up and down and totally inconsistent. I can assume now that there was damage to the carb. So its gonna take another week or so to get one.
However, i did go on the perry page and found something. The G90, OS 61fx, TT61, some magnums and such all have the same number 4500. Since I have a couple of these laying around, think I'll borrow one of them to see if it is the carb or the engine before i buy a carb. What do you think?
