I'm sure glad you went that route instead of selling the RV-3. Dave Leonard Greetings all, Well, my first rotary engine rebuilt ran today without incident. It took a while to clear all the smoke from the assembly goo, as well as the oil that was inside the exhaust from the previous trashed engine run. After a few minutes, it cleared up, and seemed to run just fine. The only issues were a couple of oil leaks, which hopefully are resolved now. I'll run it again tomorrow to see, as well as testing the new FJO wideband O2 unit.
