I thought about that but it is the same oring that has done this for the second time. I have not used any biofuel or any ethonal or alcohol at all that I know of . I am plumbing in a 3 way ball valve that will not have orings in it .
Thanks for the advice

I should have taken photos but heck it was to cold for shutter to work lol .
I cleaned out strainers and had great fuel flow I thought . Fired engine < actually started engine Runs great at idle thru 5600 RPM then wham she runs out of fuel after that . Without EGT's would not be able to see temp spiking. ERGO fly with EGT's .
Rebuilt fuel pump and checked fuel flow, again Great flow no probs . Started engine , didn't fire it yet . Idles smooth and runs to 5600 then wham EGT's spike and runs out of fuel . .
Now i get pissed and rip out all plumbing and start checking from tank's out WHOOOOOOO 3 way fuel selector has a oring that is crossways in throat of line when normal flow is going it lets fuel by , but when a suction is applied then the oring closes off the opening , not good for flight or EGT's or the engine for that matter . This is the second valve that has done this to me . These are the 1/4 " valves from Leading edge and also ACS that are silver and for fuel . I will not use these ever again and recommend others not use them also . I am re-plumbing tomorrow and using a real 3 way fuel valve that cost lots of money but is much cheaper in the long run than rebuilding the engine or the plane and makes me feel lots better to have that fan turning up front .
Again my signature will follow below

Hey no more friggin idle chatter and stick to the damn subject and be totaly serious for once . I can stand this any more all this crap and no good ideas from a couple of crazy guys lmfao.
OK it wasnt the seal oil , its that darn leftover wooly mammoth crap the oil company's are making into gas these days and it is varishing and gumming up real bad just like the pic you posted Steve. .
As for how many Alaskan's it takes , Enought till we get r dun lol . Heck steve without your input we would be lost without a real tech to give us good sound advice on how to check the muffler bearings or such .
Fly safe and check the finger strainers everyone

high EGT 582 GRRRRRRRLeni and I started to experience higher EGT's in my Kitfox we thought it was due to the weather change . I went out yesterday to rejet and now the darn thing does not get enough gas lol . Hmmmm bigger jet no gas . I did a fuel flow test and at static had plenty but with vacumm oooooops no fuel hardly . The finger strainers are plugged in the tanks . This happened once before when I bought the plane and had to steam the tanks out . Thought we got all that crud out but now I realize NOPE got to do it again. This really sucks when it is freezing out. To do the front tank stainer I have to pull the engine and remove the housing inside the cabin that covers the starter on the 582.
Ohh well so much for duck hunting this weekend .
Later fly safe all

eskflyer added a post in a topic Will someone tell him????
LMAO .
It is amazing that some people can even fly a airplane let alone worry about working on one lol. See the way I see it is if every one was smart then we would not have anything to talk about lol.
Take care fly safe .
This from someone who does all his own mods maintenance and rebuilds and does not have a A&P. I also do all my own Condition inspections and get a friend to then sign it off after I have signed the logbook myself as the one who did the work .
It is up to PIC to make shure the aircraft is safe for flight not anyone else.

Out of curiosity how many hours do you have on the 912. And what fuel do you burn?. I will not ask if you use TCP, lmfao.

eskflyer added a post in a topic What the heck is this ?
Looks just like the crap I got our of my tanks wheni bought my plane . It had been sitting in Dallas Ft Worth for 3 years not flying full of gas or should i say full of gummy used to be gas . When we steamed the tanks out there was still a residue that even MEK would not take off very easy. The tank outlet finger strainers were ruined and not cleanable . I say it is just varnish from crappy gasoline .
Just my opinion and we all know what opinions are like .

eskflyer added a post in a topic IVO prop IFA troubles
Gunpowder works great for adjusting pitch of the blades on IVO . It also facilitates the takeoff performace enhancing it greatly . Makes big boom hurling aircraft skyward in vertical launch. If installed correctly you will soon have your own wings to fly with , no more worries about about fuel or prop hubs or 912 versus 660 turbo aftercooled cheaper than rotax engine .
Gotta love it .
