I started my 13B mounted on an RV-8 for the first time today.  Made four
runs:  10 minutes at up to 2000 RPM, shut down and checked for problems;
10 minutes gradually increasing RPM to max power, shut down and checked
for problems; 30 minute run - about 20 minutes at full power; 1.5 hours
various RPMs adjusting mixture with Program Mode 1 and running full
power for about 40 minutes.

 
Hi Gaylen,
 
This has got to be the most successful first run I've ever heard of.  Very well done! 
 
Cheers,
Rusty
