Default RE: Caring for an engine

While running the tank dry and landing dead-stick will work, I find it easier and less risky to pump that tank dry after the last flight of the day! I pull thie pick-up and exhaust pressure lines off the engine, pump the tank dry and re-start the engine and then run it dry. Then I squirt in my Marvel's Air Tool Oil and run this through the engine with my starter. Finally, I replace both the pressure and pick-up lines to their connections on the engine
