Default RE: Why Does My OS .52 Throw Its Prop?

ORIGINAL: T.W.

From what you've said it's pretty conclusive that a lean mixture is causing my prop to disentangle itself from my engine - so now I know where to start looking. Your help is greatly appreciated

Check your fuel filter screen for debris, if you are using one. How stuff flops up against the screen can change the fuel flow sometimes.

I just about forgot that you mentioned that the problem occurred at half a tank of fuel. A crack in the fuel pickup line will cause the engine to
go lean too.

Good luck.
