Hi Bill,

If you will not be running the engine regularly be sure to get some light oil into each chamber so the seals won't rust and stick. Especially if you shut down last time by cutting the ignition and thus left gasoline in the engine. I recall that Ed had a bad experience after leaving the engine flooded for a long time.

Thanks, bear in mind that I am still a long way from flying. I have to bond the top of my fuselage on and then do the sanding and filling. I wanted to verify that the engine and controller would work before I made them 'harder' to get at.
