P80 ECU reboots w/ GSU
My P80 just started acting up and now whenever I plug the GSU in or out, the turbine reboots (startup beeps). so if the turbine is running and i plug the GSU in, the reset causes it to shutdown.
Was taxiing out to fly today and the RPM sagged below idle then spooled up slow and got real hot and shot flames out the back. Have had a few missed starts lately with slow acceleration after it lights on propane but would always run fine once started.
Anyone else experienced anything like this? Wondering what it might be.

Hello,
I will check with the factory on Monday, a single issue that causes both symptoms does not come to mind. I will try hard to find out before the weekend but no promises. The second issue sounds like a bad pump so you might want to try a spare if you have one.
Regards,

I talked to someone at jetcat yesterday and boxed everything up and sent it in. Figures.. best weather we've had all year and can't fly. oh well =\
Still curious if anyone has ever seen anything like this before.. it seems rather wierd.
