Dave, there is always a logical answer … a loose CAS wire
should have caused a previous intermittent situation – not a go/no-go
engine.
Where exactly is your engine air intake and how do you cover it?

Subject: [FlyRotary] Problem fixed but unsolved
Went to the plane today, installed the spark plugs, and it
started right up.. Cool, but...
Bad gas followed by a flooded engine?
Low battery caused by a possible battery drain (like the
always hot radio or engine monitor being left on overnight)
Today I removed the cover from the engine
air inlet and realized that I cant remember specifically removing or
replacing it the other day.. was that still in place? cant possibly
have been considering that I removed the upper cowl twice and would have had to
stare right at it several times... Still, I have done dumber things.
A loose CAS connection that is going to jump up an bite me?
- this is what really worries me...
Will take it easy for the next few hours..
