Yes, I can just hear it now. I taxi up to my hangar and shut down after making a couple of smoking runs. Airport manager comes up to me and asks what the heck I think I'm doing? "Fumigating for elephants" I'll tell him. "Elephants? There ain't no elephants around here!" To which I reply, "Well then, I guess it's working!"Har, har. Sorry for that bad one.I know what you mean about the muffled sound when there is smoke in the pipe, but this was an actual missing/stuttering sound, almost as if smoke was getting drawn back into the chamber and causing a miss. Regardless, I think you and Chuck are right and when I operate it at normal flight RPM with the engine warm, I'll have no problem. I will flight-test it at altitude before trying it near the ground though. We have plenty of buzzards around here and I can do an aerial application of "buzzard dispersant" when the time comes.Oscar ZunigaNX41CCSan Antonio, TXmailto: taildrags(at)hotmail.comwebsite at http://www.flysquirrel.net_________________________________________________________________Test your celebrity IQ.
