KR> Stored aircraft engine startup question

The only advise that I can give you from where I sit here in my home office, even though I have had 3 VW engines, is, have a very good VW mechanic go through the entire engine, paying particular attention to the heads. The rings could be rusted and the cylinders pitted, who knows. The valve sprin

KR> RE: CorvAircraft> 3 new KR2S about to fly

KR> Backfiring at idle/slow speeds

I am familiar with the engine as I have one in my shop that has since been converted to a 1915. Backfiring can be caused by running too lean, and probably by a timing that is too advanced. Your engine should run at the same, or nearly the same RPM, with either ignition, on and the other off. If i
