Gaines;what a nice time to start a quiz,How is the A-1 doing.Geo.
Yea, a lot of good suggestions but everyone is ignoring the fact that the guy has 2 other engines he is flying weekly with the same fuel, oil, container, filter with zero problems.
The A1 is still flying well after almost 5 years. It is my favorite warbird. I did a bit of paint touch-up last month to get rid of some hanger rash and replaced the fuel system early this last winter. The G62 just seems to be getting better every flight. I have also replaced all batteries with A123 systems packs and the old nicad starter battery with a very light 1800mah LiPoly 3 cell pack.
If you missed it here is a video that a guy took for RCU at Warbirds Over Tulsa last year. It was windy and I almost folded a gear but it kept on trucking.
