Default RE: Great planes ultimate 160

The BOAT ANCHOR actually RUNS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Meaning that I have the Fuji 54EI now running. Kinda lame for a 46cc motor - only turns my 50cc benchmark prop ( BME 21 x 8) at 6250, that's after about 2 hours. Breaking in with 50:1 Stihl (like my Taurus), really touchy needles but running and starting pretty good.

Strange how the compression is coming UP after each run.... weird....but... it's a FUJI "Boat Anchor"...hot restarts on the 5th or 6th flip, usually.... probably will get better when the low end is leaner...Plug looks great, and it's a very smooth runner.

Maiden next w.e., I hope.
