Hi Pe.

Is 3W's own oil not as good as made out then!!. I've only just purchased a litre and at £15 it's not cheap. I may have some difficulty in obtaining Mobil 1 2T locally it may well have to be mail order.

Is the 26 IFS going to be a good match for the YS 140 Motor that I have removed from the YAK due to problematic running and very expensive fuel.

Have you any good information regarding baffling the motor in a Yak cowling ?

Do not get me wrong. 3W oil, whatever it is, is quite popular amongst German pilots, but as long as I do not know what it is, I will not recommend it for MVVS engines, because they have ultimate demands on the oil used, due to the very high specific power output, and cantilever crank construction.

For a baffling example, look at the " Evolution 58GX2 ign. LED flashing" thread at http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_62...tm.htm#6255021
I will post a complete report soon in my own forum www.prme.nl/forum (working on it, but time is not on my side)
