Default RE: Sad day for gas engines - Pe Rievers

ORIGINAL: pe reivers

Like referring to C-1022 without posting a link or using quotes?
I know it's the Walbro service manual, but who else does as well? Come on, be fair!
Even then, The service manual does not provide a solution for the WB carbs going richer with the regulator on top (carb in downdraught position). Their carbs are not meant to fly and experience 20+ G-forces while doing so, but are built for hand-held appliances. We find out they are not perfect, so we are searching for solutions to the problems.

If that is like wasting your time, like I said, nobody forces you to read on.

A month after his post in the 'problems when inverted' thread, Pe has left us to fly high. The post provides a quick synopsis of the character of a very helpful and knowledgeable contributor to model engine support. Pe Reivers was our good fortune. To his family and friends, may they be consoled by the knowledge and legacy that Pe was one of the best of the best.
