Stevo Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 I really don't want to offer any more advice here, but the response to this has been overwhelming - Colin you must be blown away, and of course it proves the worth of this forum and its members. Well done guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin Anderson Posted January 27, 2014 Author Share Posted January 27, 2014 I'd have to wholeheartedly second Steve's comments above. To say I was blown away by the response is an understatement! So, very well done guys and thank you all for helping me resolve this problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin Anderson Posted January 28, 2014 Author Share Posted January 28, 2014 Just a quick update. Fired up the engine today with the 11 inch prop refitted, a new glow plug and a filter fitted between the silencer and tank. I'm happy to report that the filter has not interfered with the running. The engine's response is now back to what it should be. The throttle now responds fully throughout the range. As a bonus the exhaust, although still oily, is no longer black! So,once again guys, a big thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

William Morrison Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 Could it be your clunck is stuck up front in a corner. That prevides enough fuel to start and run for a bit, then she quits. Common problem if you had a hard landing, tip over sort of thing. Good luck in finding your problem. Its got to be fuel related. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin Anderson Posted February 16, 2014 Author Share Posted February 16, 2014 Thanks for the input William, but this issue is resolved. It was a blocked jet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
