I have my RV-6 home
after driving 13 hours, removing old motor, installing newly built motor,
testing and flew 4 hours home against a headwind at lower than usual throttle
for break-in. The new motor ran perfectly, no oil leaks, two minor water seeps.
Took 9 hours to R&R motor and 1 hour to tune up and
test.
It was the rear (in car) rotor that was bad, one missing apex seal and damage to
rotor visible through lower spark plug hole. I have to attend to my day
job now, I will disassemble the old motor tonight and hopefully
have something more to share then.
