46FX with Jett stream Muffler on Dazzler PROBLEMS
Hello,
I put a 46FX on my Dazzler.... lots of power, howerver for my next project (lanier predator) I bought a Jett Muffler and put it for testing on the Dazzler 46FX.... RPM increased about 1000-1200 RPM and added lots of power....
However when tank is only half full, engine quits especially at radical high speed manouvers (thight loops, 90 degree at full throttle...etc...after engine quits and plane is landed, the fuel line is empty!!....
Does the Jettmuffler have less pressure drop, so that the tank is not pressured enough???
I checked the tank with the fuel lines, clunk etc., everything is O.K....
THANX

It sounds like the engine just plain needs more fuel at the higher RPM and is being starved due to the high-G manuevers. A Jett or Tetra bubbleless tanks should cure your woes. You might also be too lean.
