That is what I really like about the DLE company. They listen to the customers input and they keep improving their engines. I have read several postings customers say the rings are better now. Keep up the good work, DLE & thanks for the improvements. Best Regards Capt,n
Hi John and all,
Taking .015 off the bottom of DL cyl was not one of my better ideas.Do not do it.With no cyl gasket piston hit the top.Put on two cyl gaskets and a bowman ring.
After a short run in about five mins. Engine turned a 20x6 MAS 7800 and idle at 1200.It turned better then this with original cyl and ring. I will put the org cyl back on before week end. Got in several flights Sun. Again with the help of friends. Other DL 30 with bowman ring is doing great turns better and much better comp. I do think the new DL parts are better. The ring in this one looked good maybe two gallon of fuel through it.Will have to order mopre rings from Frank/
Used to do a lot of Trout fishing in Wind River Mts. I knew many places where you could fish all day and not see another person. Used to run to these places on a dirt bike.Them days are over(darn it).
