I never win.
I managed to get the tank out and I found the problem. It was fairly obvious. The fuel line was ripped almost all the way around where it hooks on to the tank. I took the line out of the tank to to make sure everyting was ok there since I had it apart. I had to remove the engine and replace it.
After all that now it runs almost alright, its probably flyable, but somethign is still wrong. I still see air in the fuel line!
And it revs up niceley and screams, but it kind oscilates slightly. Like I say, I think it is flyable, and it is not lean, but its not right.
I am mad[:@].
Looks like I will have to take it apart again.
The only think I can think of is on my trainer I had a problem with the clunk getting stuck forward.
I took the advice of Minnflyer and split the line and put tubing in the middle to keep it from coming forward. I think maybe it is getting air there.
I stuffed the entire tank area with all kinds of foam. I don't think it is moving.
Anyone have any suggestions?
I really don't want to take it apart again.
My receiver was soaked with fuel also. I took it apart and fortunately all the electonics was dry, so I think its ok.
As far as the balsa soaked, I guess what is done is done, not much I an do about it now. I don't even know what your taking about putting meal in there. I tried to wipe it best I could. I am not making a run to any store to buy obsorbent I have to work tommorow.
As much foam as I jammed in there, its bound to get soaked up.
