My injectors are all the same size. When I disable the secondary, I think it works as it should. It
is when I disable the primary that I am concerned about. I haven¡¯t tried enriching the mixture as Ed suggested. I will try that next time I run the engine to see if that is a factor.
What is the best/most popular engine run up check to do with our rotary engines before take off? Does
anybody have a check list that they would like to share??
