<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I must be the luckiest guy alive. After 4 flights
my engine became erratic. After landing I noticed a black streak of soot
trailing from the chin cowl. Upon removing the chin cowl, I discovered that the
entire mount would rotate completely in either direction, all the way till it
hit cowl.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Took it apart, discovered that 3 of 4 bolts came
loose that hold the mount to the firewall, and the last one was holding by 3
threads. It did a lot of damage, but after an all afternoon shift, it's ready to
go again in the morning.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Nice day here in Waxahachie Texas. 5-10mph out of
the south 58 degrees.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> 3 flights, improved trim and tried an 18x8W
on the OS and seem to work well. Although it was a little peaky on WOT
and didnt want to come down on the idle well. Do I need to lengthen the
pipe some?</FONT></DIV>
