Mintor 1.7

[Roberto Estrada]

Hi Vicente, like you say, Mintor have better transition between low and high
revolutions because have two plugs.... I want to make a good buy, and think
that I'll have troubles with YS maintenance for two reasons: cost and
distance.

I talk about Mintor 1.70 because I 'm about 7500 fsl

About bearings, think it is cheap (more than YS service are), so may be take
the risk.

Where are you?

Thank's

Luis Roberto

Tambien tengo el OS 140 con resultado parecido.  El Mintor esta mejor
entonado para ayudar a reducir la velocidad en los vuelos verticales de
bajada ya que tiene dos bujias.  Las revoluciones en ralenti pueden ser
approximadamente 200-400 rpm menos que el OS 140.  Yo le instale una segunda
bujia al OS y note mejoria.  El YS es un motor excellente.  Yo tengo dos 140
FZ y me dieron un buen servicio pero requieren mas mantenimiento.  Tu tienes
que revisar si puedes obtener repuestos para tomar la decision.  El lado
debil de Mintor o OS es la vida de las rolineras.  Sin embargo el Mintor 170
tinen dos ileras de rolineras y no debe tener problemas.  La solucion es
installar rolineras de acero inoxidable.  Otor factor es combustible.  En el
YS es necesario usar 25-30% nitro.  Con el Mintor o OS puedes bajar a 10-15%
nitro dependiendo de la humedad y la temperatura.
