I have had mostly ignition engines with c/h type ignitions i am use to a low smooth idle i have a fairly new g445 i acquired on a giant scale stinger I KNOW OVERKILL but i got a heck of a deal on the plane anyway the motor is real smooth on transiton ect but on idle it is really a shaker is that normal i havent tached it yet and it only has a couple hours run time any suggestions or comments

Mine shakes like heck while idling! My problem with the motor is slowing it down to an idle! It doesn't want to come back into a idle when landing, I normally cut the throttle to idle as I'm just turning onto the base leg and finally just before touch down it slows to a decent idle? It has done this since it was new? I've have the low end as rich as I can and still have it run. Oh well, I took it out of my Ultimate and put in a 3W so now I don't have to worry about it!

The idle problem is common ..A Walbro SDC 80 carb fixes it.....

Hey Ralph, you already sold me a SDC 80! Still does it! Not as bad as it used to though. Z445, CH Electronic Ignition, 24x10 Menz "S"
