Hi there ,yea the weather don,t look to good.


No ... if the forecast accurate, next week will be good. See how it goes.

yep had a play with plane as I said put a larger tank in 50% bigger ,but don,t think that was the problem because when I changed the fuek in line into carbywhich had a bigger internal diameter the plane ran great .top end got 12900 revs at idle 800 rpm

Good rpms. At least you got it running.

,I still think its a bit rich the mixture I mean put 2 tank fulls through it ran O.K only problem is there are a lot of bubbles coming through fuel line into carby not sure how to fix ,_any ideas ??


Cause: Vibration of the tank.


Solution : Pack in some more sponge to secure the tank.

Or add a squirt or two of ArmourAll to your glow fuel to cut down on foaming and lean runs. Won't hurt the engine. Armourall is anti-foaming agent and car plastic protectant.



also charged batteries and they went flat after 2 hours so down to DICK SMITHS in the morning for some decent ones
That under carriage you are getting should be strong enough you should 3 D it in and get someone to catch it for you


Good idea .... you want to volunteer ?


then no landing problems well thats it for now so take care see next time you are out there Paul



Time you take a look at your Mustang after sorting out this one .... !!

Jansen This is a copy I,ve pasted from a club member re air in fuel line lets know if it helps anyone sounds O.K to me
