Jab 3300 w/Rotec Mk1 question

Postby Sonex32 » Mon Apr 04, 2016 4:33 pm

Howdy fellas,

Fired up my Jab powered Panther for the first time last week.

Question is where did most end up with the idle mixture setting? From the factory it was set 3/4 turn open. I've backed it out another 3/4 turn and it's a bit better, but still running on the rough side. Any help with the setup appreciated.

thanks,

Tony Spicer

Tony Spicer... I have no value to add here, other than to say it is lovely to see a post from you. Hope your new airplane is as nice as the previous one, and the one before that and of course (particularly) the one before that.

Cheers,

Some Australian Guy

I went one full turn richer. Idles like a champ now.
