Default TT GP 42 Engine Leaking and compression decline
Hi everyone,

I was flying my Viper 500 with TT 42 (bearing free according to our regulations) this weekend and after some laps, it became very slow. After I check, I could see that there was some fuel leaking from the above of the engine head. I have dismounted , saw that inside the oil was black like burned oil. After I tight the screws again I opened up a little the high speed needle but it keeps leaking and losing compression after 6 laps....

Does anyone can help on that subject ? What do you recommend? Of course the easiest answer is : Buy another one !!! but I have hope that anyone can help me out !

Thanks and rgds !
