Bob nj, I wish I would have seen your post yesterday. I just pulled the engine off the plane last night. That thread you pointed out sounds EXACTLY like my problem and I have tried everything else. I think I will put the engine back in the plane this afternoon and try it with a nicad. If I don't and I send it in for service, they are probably going to hook it to a nicad and if it works fine in the shop I will be back to square one hunting for the "Ghost" again.
