Ouch! Any conclusions as to the break?
Cheers.
We;; Been trying to get the engine running better in this humid (very unlike UK) weather, and reckon she was maybe to lean? not sure but when testing the engine, while holding the plane vertical it backfired at full throttle and shot the prop very high into the sky
think that may have stressed the conrod to much, and then while flying did the same again and snapped it? its does seem a very hard engine to set up.....and it likes cool weather better for sure.
I'm not really an engine guru though, so not fully sure why its so hard to set up?
anyway will keep the rebuilt engine a damn site richer
