If it acts up again, I will try the same thing. Let me know of your pressure
findings. I have really enjoyed my DZ. I have had no problems until now. I
have about 9 cases of fuel through this engine. Good luck, Terry

quit in level, at low throttle on downline or wherever it wanted to.For 3
weeks it ran perfect.Monday the first flight was good and second it seemed
like it was lean. It was down on power. All I did was clean the pump and
reassemble it and the pump high and low adjustments are different than
before. It seems to be ok but I need to fly it to make sure.

on the pump output side and see what the pressure should be for idle and
high speed. Then I will have a benchmark to check it by.I have had problems
with this engine since day 1.After 6 flts the main bearing was replaced by
Rich.
