Default RE: JetJoe OWNERS thread

Thanks to help from Russ and Andy I had two successful bench runs on my JJ 1400 this afternoon, burned a total of 90 oz of fuel with no flame outs or abnormal behavior. I set the accel and decel delay down to 15 and did several runs to full power from different RPM's with none of the issues I had before. I'm planning one more run on the test stand and then it will be going into my Boomerang Intro.

In the end, the changes that I made to my JJ1400 to get it to run correctly were:

1. Fixed three poor flowing needles in the fuel ring (heated and pulled out slightly)
2. Adjusted the geometry of the fuel sticks and swirl jets in the combustion chamber.

Thanks for all the help guys.

Mike
