Default RE: improved vibration

Yes, had the same trouble with the muffler. OS is better, but the pressure nippel tended to unscrew. Now its soldered.

Thanks for the input with the flex pipe, I will try that.

So the fuel should be fine.
Have you tried playing around with the low speed needle? Even if transition and idle is fine, just a small change could be an improvement vibrationwise.
I tried several props, also light wooden ones. Made no difference in vibrations, however the idle was a tad smoother. And they have to be balanced, of course.
But the best advice, I guess, is to bolt the engine as firm as possible to the firewall to lead the vibrations into the fuselage.
