Mixture adjustment was what made my problem go away also, but only after I landed. That said, I didnt mess with the mixture much during the flight - just headed home. The temps you recorded are higher than I've seen, and would certainly make me nervous. What was the ambient? I see the same heat soak after a flight. I think it's from the steel of the engine rather than the turbo. I can land with coolant temp at 180. 10 minutes after shutdown its 220, even with the nspection door open to let the heat out. Sounds like you made the right decision. It only takes one thing out of order for me to head home immediately at this stage. regards, John ------=_NextPart_000_0018_01C4480C.CBEAB2E0 Content-Type: text/html; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Message
