OS 10 LA Leaking fuel
Thank you, no I have not been able to start the engine but I believe I may have isolated the problem. The engine is in a 1955 designed R/C plane following the old plans I installed the tank on top of the hard wood motor mounts. The tank may be too high.
With the valve set as you recommend the engine floods and fuel drips out the front. If I close the needle valve down (1 1/2 turns) the engine runs out the prime and stops.
I would like your opinion as I am not sure. Fixing the tank elevation is major surgery. If there is an alternative please let me know.
I know it is difficult/impossible to trouble shoot this way so any ideas will be appreciated.
