 I had a big problem with a faulty check valve also. It'll drive you crazy. Mike

Have you replaced the check valve. You might want to make sure it is O.K.
Intermittant leak-back will drive you nuts.

approach. Not during a spin, stall turn, or idling on the ground. In fact,
prior to takeoff it will idle extremely well, for 5-6 minutes, only at the
end of the flight, with fuel, it dies about 5 ft high. It doesn't matter
how fast the idle is advanced either.
