[NSRCA-discussion] Balance Point

[Jon Lowe]

 Make SURE you leave your carb in the fully closed/shut off position, and you shouldn't have the problem (I never did).  If you don't, clamp off the fuel supply between flights.

Subject: [NSRCA-discussion] Balance Point


Can anyone out there in Pattern-Land tell me where the balance point is on an IcePoint?

Also, I'm running a pumped O.S. 1.60 on this airplane.  Engine runs fine, but I've got a siphon problem. When it's not running, fuel continually drips out the carb.  This also makes it difficult to start because it floods easy and 1.60's don't like to be wet.  Tank is roughly at the balance point and I can't get it any lower unless I cut into the wing.  Anyone else have/had this problem?
