Andy and Marty,
It can happen of the engine to inhale the graphite and obstruct the injectors. We had this problem with our KJ66, and, we decide polish the nut of the compressor and bendex and change o'ring for a new measured. The problem was decided satisfactorily. I hope helped the problem. [sm=wink_smile.gif]

JR- Wow thats a new one on me... obstructed injectors, never had a problem on my engines using graphite powder for clutch lube, I use so little I cant imagine how it would ever cause injectors to get blocked. That said I tend to work the graphite dust well into the mechanism manually then use a compressed air gun to blow away residue. I have had clutches slip though nearly every time I tried even just a miniscule drop of light oil or WD, usually then only get a start or two at best before slipping starts...
Rob- Yes been a while eh mate, sorry Ive been pretty busy moving and renovating new house and also been away with the UAV's alot of late. Also not heard from CM since earlier this year.... Ive just sent you a PM re- parts availability.
Cheers- Marty
