It appears to be only a water temperature problem. The oil stays in parameters. We are swapping the water pump and re-bleeding the system today.

Ryan, We have a member of the group William Jepson that has some knowledge of the Powersport PSRU and PP engine. Bill post here from time to time. Are you coolant or oil cooling challenged? Bobby From: Rotary motors in aircraft [mailto:flyrotary@lancaironline.net]

Subject: [FlyRotary] Hello From Utah My name is Ryan Hendrickson and I have an RV-8 running a Powersport firewall forward setup out here in Utah. I purchased the plane from the builder and a mentor of mine shortly before he went west. So unfortunately, I don't have the benefit of his knowledge to help me tinker on it. Finn has offered some guidance, but I thought it would be also helpful to find anyone else out there running the Powersport design. The motor runs very well, but I am struggling to keep it cool. If I succeed it solving the cooling issues, I would also love some advice on building an exhaust. It is currently straight-piped off the header and it is unbearably loud. That said, are there any Powersport aircraft out there that are successfully flying? Disclaimer The information contained in this communication from the sender is confidential.
