At Last! An end to Carb Icing..

On two occasions in my flying I have had bad carb icing, not only does it effect the engine, it stresses the heart too! I will let the good, the great and the brave test the new ECU for a few years before I invest....however, this is a no brainer for me! Even if mine, via the photo evidence on this blog proves that I have one and it goes all the way to the sides ;-)

Engine Start!

It fired after the first crank! considering that the entire thing has been in bits to have it start and run first time was a little victory! Hoora! So smooth and boy did that new 11amp hr battery whizz the crank around, Its certainly part of the solution to the cold starting kickback of the 912s, the only mod i need to add is the new starter now. The CONRAD - CONAIR Sport Soft Start makes all the difference too, and if you have met him you will know he is a really nice guy, knowledgeable and free advice too. Next job is to re profile the battons and start to take the machine back to the airfield! More tomorrow!
