Re engine switch off.
Many thanks for all the replies.
I have a jabiru 2200 on the Tecnam. Seems a great little engine and I am slowly working throught the basic maintenance on her, oil and filter change, plugs, tappets, 2x new rotor arms, mine were very sloppy, new carb rubber inlet manifold,slightly splitting from the inside,worth checking.
Had a scare when I took the bottom off the gascolator as the previous owner who was very lacking on maintenance had obviously never removed the same and it had about an inch and a half of a mixture of water,rust,sludge etc. Amazingly it must have been doing an excellent job as the inline filter was pretty clear and the carb bowl was spotless.
The engine has done 270 hours so I am hoping she will stay sweet up to the 1000 TBO.
Does anyone have any fuel burn figures for their P92 echos with a Jabiru or are you all on 912s in OZ ?
She seems sweet at 2500/2600 revs at about 8o/85 knots.
Thanks again for the feedback re switching off.
Roly, happy to learn from those who know!!!
