Kevin

It was highly recommended at the CPA course. These mags are smaller than the 400 series and are more prone to have ignition jump within the mag itself. I should not have stated 25 hrs,...

Mark

It appears to dissolve the carbon as opposed to "cleaning it in chunks".

It is very expensive for what it is but it does the trick.

BTW there is a real good article...

Don , Skyking

Investing 20 bucks on a can of AVBLEND is worth a shot!

oil junk

Skyking

AVblend does break down the carbon. GMAS, in my opinion, has hit the nail on the head. Radial engines have even a bigger problem with large carbon deposits plugging the screens.

Don

I am no better pilot! I think that you are now cleaning out the engine after a length of inactivity and perhaps a lot of carbon buildup. As you are aware you need to run the engines above 180...

re oil

Don

I have NEVER needed to do this EVER. Make sure you keep the engines lean as possible on the ground and as much as possible in the air.
