Check the plug and make sure low end idle is set correct. Also maybe lean it some more so that the top end won't be so loaded with fuel that it puts plug out when you pull it back to idle. Sometimes My 140's will quit if I jerk them back to idle, if the are too rich on top end. I know guys my low end may not be right either. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>just tho'ts</DIV> <DIV>Jim Ivey</DIV> <BLOCKQUOTE style="PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #000000 2px solid; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px"> <DIV style="FONT: 10pt Arial">----- Original Message -----</DIV> <DIV style="BACKGROUND: #e4e4e4; FONT: 10pt Arial; COLOR: black"><B>From:</B> jed241@msn.com</DIV> <DIV style="FONT: 10pt Arial"><B>Sent:</B> Wednesday, July 30, 2003 10:52 PM</DIV> <DIV style="FONT: 10pt Arial"><B>To:</B> NSRCA</DIV> <DIV style="FONT: 10pt Arial"><B>Subject:</B> YS 140L Help</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <STYLE></STYLE> <META content="MSHTML 6.00.2726.2500" name=GENERATOR> <DIV>I have a 140L in a Focus. Has been flying very well and very strong, with never a problem. I have about 10 flights on this barely used engine and I flame out in a very uncomfortable attitude. Vertical climb flamed out at about 25% of the vertical in a stall turn. I was settled at 3/4 throttle, never need full throttle flying Sportsman with this plane.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Although at the down wind part of the field and pointed the wrong direction when the engine quit (straight up), I was able to drag her all the way in and still managed to make it a very hot landing <vbg>.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Anyway, What kind of things would cause a very strong running motor to just quit? If anything it was a tad bit to the rich side with a exhaust trail.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Fuel is WildCat 15% Nitro 18% Synth (no castor).</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Pretty vague question I know, just curious what this typically ends up being. I was planning on taking it to a contest this weekend.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>See ya,</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Larry</DIV></BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML>
