Tracy,

You may question the wisd= om of telling us that <g>. We have had some VERY interesting = and insightful discussions over the past few weeks which may be completel= y nullified with your return and input :-).

BTW, my latest engine efforts have been progressing = well so far. However, I am being distracted by having to prep the V= elocity to sit on a ramp for a couple of months while the City repairs th= e hangar's roof that was allegedly damaged during Hurricane Ike.....can w= e say; micro, sand, micro...apply UV primer (resulting from my last years= jeffco/strake failure)...I am just now "finishing" the surface of t= he repaired strake <sigh>

If any of y'all have time and want to fuel the fire, you may take = a gander at the Cozy list....the rotary came up as a point of dispute rec= ently following Oley's issue.

I expect you have hundreds of emails to wade through. I trus= t you enjoyed your time away. Welcome back

Yup, spins with no sign of firing at all!&= nbsp; It only spins easily by hand when the plugs are out.. otherwi= se it is a one-compression-at-a-time kind of exercise. Compression = is normal.. I am well familiar with its feel.

I am cu= rrently leaning toward a intermittent condition with my CAS wiring or the= bad gas/flooding issue. At least it has made me think harder about= my CAS as a single point failure and review the wiring.

Thanks fo= r all the suggestions.

Anyone one know of a new component nec= essary other than fuel, spark, and compression?

Spins with no sign of firing at all?
Spits & pops but no regular combustion events?

Any chance tha= t the extra effort required to spin the engine by hand using the prop thr= ough the reduction drive is hiding the fact that you have low compression= ? The old RX-7 starting trick is fairly quick if you've already got= the cowl off. Pull a plug for each rotor & squirt in a little ATF, r= einsert the plug & try to crank. Lyn can probably recommend how much.= I never measured; I just dumped in as much as I could get in there while= fighting all the junk under the hood.
