I have a YS 91 in a Fury Extreme that has started acting rather funny. I can fly one flight OK, but in subsequent flights the engine stops very suddenly, as if it spit out the glow plug (which has happened).
I get great auto practice, but would like to know what is happening.
Engine starts easliy and idles great; I am running 30% fuel with an OS 8 plug.
Any thoughts?

It's a 91 ST. It has less than 2 gallons thru it; idles well, transitions great. High end is open about 1-1 1/4 turns - plenty of smoke when flying.
I run a governor, but it has quit on normal throttle curves as well as in governor modes. It as quit when under high blade loads and while hovering.
The plugs have deformed pretty quickly, which I always have thought meant too much compression or nitro. I thought a head gasket might help.
I have been running YS for years and this is hte first one that has me stumped. I have run the same brand of fuel for 15 years. I run the same fuel in
all my enignes - and my YS 4 strokes love it.
