Was the engine rpms close
to the injector staging point?

I had the same thought but the scenario is wrong for this. The "miss"
would happen only at full throttle (usually during climb) and never at cruise or
low power if slipping input shaft were the cause. This is of course
based on one example but logically, that is what you would expect.
I do intend to add data logging to the EM2 & EC2 but in my experience
so far, it would take a VERY sophisticated diagnostic to detect this type of
problem. None of the aviation type data logging systems currently on the
market will do it. The BMW engine controller (and probably others) can do
it however. The listing of engine fault codes is over 200 pages
long. It can detect and log a single cylinder miss and tell you which one
it was. There are probably more engineering man hours in that
controller than I have left to live.

Just a lurker here, but could it have been the shaft in the
psru, slipping and rewelding, as just stated on the threads? Duane
