Re: Stus-List [Bulk] Re: Ok more atomic 4 issues...dammit!
The importance. Of using premium fuel is that have little or no ethanol I'm it .regular fuel has up to 10% ethanol some premiums have less or even better no ethanol DDrake 73 JH CC 26 On Aug 13, 2014, at 2:16 PM, Russ Melody via CnC-List cnc-list@cnc-list.com wrote: Hi Danny, You don't need to use premium gas in a relatively low compression engine unless your fuel hose is not gas meth compatible (and maybe some ancient injection equipment as found on old VWs, not the case here!). The higher octane rating does not make it better gas but it does slow the burn rate. So, sooty plugs eh. To state the obvious: fuel too rich or more precisely fuel/air ratio too high since we've ruled out plug heat range, low compression and sticky oil wiper rings by virtue of Moyer rebuild. Air side: Is you air filter clean? engine space too tight? vent blower run continuous? Fuel side: main jet too big is already covered off by Moyer, float set too high? or what I believe is the culprit... float needle valve not seating correctly or a bad needle seat (all it takes is a speck o' dirt there). What is your fuel pump pressure set at? It could be too high.

We went for a sea trial Sunday after the changes, i.e. Vent line cleared, filters changed, clamps tightened. The engine ran great all the way to Cuttyhunk. I probably ran it about 3 hours. Two of those hours I ran it a little harder than I normally do after having read Don M's reasons for having black sooty spark plugs. I thought my problems were solved. On our way home from cuttyhunk, We motored out the harbor and decided that, because the wind was a little light, we would motor home to run the engine some more. 50 minutes into our ride home, the same thing, only a bit slower. the whole, slow, stall happened over maybe a minute or two. Some sputter, then run normal, a little more sputter, then normal and then a slow stall. We then sailed home and into the mooring field. This is actually a benefit of the engine troubles, I've been a bit intimidated about sailing onto the mouth of the river due to the current and very tight channel flanked by shoals and some pretty ominous looking rocks. I've now had to sail into the harbor twice over this last weekend. At one point we were probably doing 4 or 4.5knts through the water but only 1 to 1.5knts over the ground fighting that current. On one side of the boat it a big, rocky cliff and the other shoal. it was a little adrenalin pumping! Anyway, the approach to our mooring was dead, head to wind, along with the current in the same direction, I lost forward motion under sail and started the engine. She started right up and we motored onto the mooring without incident. So, safely moored, I pulled the vent tube, it was clear. I then went below and pulled a spark plug and it was all black and sooty again after maybe 4 hours running time. I used the Moyer rebuild kit on the carb that is on there now. I'm not sure but, I think I changed the main jet to the moyer recomended one at that time. I think it came with the rebuild kit. My earlier idling issues seemed to have been solved by swapping out the carb that came with the exchange engine for the one I rebuilt off the original engine and had just sitting around as a spare. I think what I would like to do now is, clean up the carb that came with the exchange engine. and swap them back out. I'll then replace the plugs and run it some more. Unless you guys think I should maybe try another path forward. Danny P.S. Cuttyhunk was Amazing! Could be the carburetor. I've had this issue too many times. I chose to take off the carb, break it down completely and clean it out. Moyer Marine's A4 guide is very useful. Brian s/v Rekofa The Blue Whale 1979 CC 34 Baltimore, MD Dr. Brian C.
