<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Don:<BR><BR>You are exactly correct. The guy
with the engine problem is a good customer of mine, and I had spoken on the
phone to him about it, but I had no idea that he was not using the foam
clunk! <BR><BR>It will now be my first check point when people have a
problem with the DZ. It is a very easy engine to run, the easiest of all
YS's in my opinion....</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=2>Tony, excellent. After an experence last weekend, I
must emphasize one other point- use the foam clunk pick-up, but
avoid using a standard clunk. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Spent an hour helping a gent after he lost
a couple of rounds at NARCA confirming the fact. Did save him
an unnecessary shipping charge back to YS. After fighting the engine for
a dozen or so flights for the past several weekends, he was happy to finally
have the problem solved by using the YS foam clunk. </FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Don:<BR><BR>Good info for all.. However, the bladder
tank is not really needed.. Just use the pickup supplied by YS and it
will run just fine. Sure saves the worry about splitting a
bladder.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Thought I'd offer some quick set-up tips for anyone
interested. If you have an excellent system that works for you, no
need to read on. For those remaining:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>1. Use a good hot glow igniter. The fuel
injection cools the plug more than conventional induction engines.
You'll know if you hear the engine pop, then no fire at all while spinning
the prop and running the starter battery (as the engine
floods).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>2. Set up fuel line/filter so its external about 2
inches (the holder can reach over and pinch line if
engine gets flooded while starting) Also the filter external is
easy for maintenance and diagnostics (those tiny bubbes from a faulty fuel
line).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>3. Start engine. Should start easily with a
high torque starter. Start with needle out quite a bit, pump setting
varies. (I have heard the recommendation of just a little
recessed; almost flush with screw housings, or, start with factory
setting).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>4. If engine does not idle (loads up an quits
after 10 seconds) screw the pump out. Mine took quite a bit out-
about 3/4 turn out from being flush with pump screw housing.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>5. With needle rich (I put mine out 2 1/2 turns)
run full throttle, then reduce back to idle, screw in a quarter turn, run
full throttle (you should hear an rpm increase). Keep doing this
process til you year that increase, go another 1/4 turn until it does
not increase or starts to knock. Then back off an eight to
quarter turn. Note- during each run-up, I'm not running at full
throttle for more than about 3 seconds. Why? So the engine
does not over-heat if going in too far.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>6 Fly. Great idle on the ground and excellent
runs.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>For reference, here are my settings. Fly JR,
Don</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Engine: YS 140DZ</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Prop: APC 16x12 (keeps prop noise down)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Pipe; ES- XL (2C pipe) Less expensive and
quiet</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Fuel: Magnum Heli Pro</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Glow Plug: OS F</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Filter: YS </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Tank: Tetra 18 oz w/bladder</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Needle- about 1 5/8 out.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Pump- about 3/4 turn past flush.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Discussion: The pump (turning it out) makes it
pump with less pressure, thus the need to screw out the needle. The
less pressure also results in leaner idle. Likewise, turning the
pump screw in makes the pump (pump more). Turn it in too much and
the fuel line pops off at the injector! No need for this much
pressure. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Note on bladder- first one broke after 10
gallons. Second one is still going. I now fill tank as normal, but
as its getting to the top, pump very slowly so the (balloon) is not too
stessed. Fuel should dribble out, interspersed with
bubbles.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Good flying, Don</FONT></DIV>
