Bill Shultz commented on the Blue Mountain EFIS using the #1 injector for RPM. So, if the BMA EFIS is connected to the #1 injector lead, then it could be causing the over rich condition on that rotor. I'm not sure if I did that or not as my BMA RPM indicator has never worked. It has been many years since I installed the EFIS, so I don't recall if this was done or not. But this will be the next thing I will check. Thanks, Mark On Tue, May 29, 2012 at 9:47 AM, Steven W.
