RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

G'day OF,

Thanks - currently the engine is in a pulse Xt 60 which means it is quite tightly cowled around the crankcase but the engine sits up high - the entire cylinder is exposed. Will try...

RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

Thanks - I have the LSN as lean as it will go whilst keeping a smooth transition. I leaned it to the point where it hesitated mid range, backed it off until it was smooth, then for good measure...

RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

Hi Dave,

Welcome! There are many more experienced people here than me but I'll add a reply. Unlike, say, an OS 46 AX it's not a question of running a few slightly rich tanks through it out of...

RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

Thanks FNQ flyer - I'm a TMAC member so will keep that for the next problem (sent it to Brian Winch in Sydney - the "engin-ear" from Airborne Mag - he's been very helpful).

Hope your fingers are...

RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

Hi there The Pope,

Thanks - will order the new cylinder from HHQ and give it a go. Good advice on the disassembly! LHS has been very disappointing considering the large number of $ that have...

RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

Gday Mike,

RE: Welcome to Club SAITO !

Thanks - I've learned my lesson - will be much more careful tightening the screws in the future! Tomorrow I've got to work out how I can get it fixed in Australia - first stop LHS I guess. Not keen...
