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.
