337G is an unknown quantity at this point
rough engine

Cold is not an issue up here any more Skyking so frosted plugs would not be an issue however perhaps a bad lead or two may be worth investigating. I thought fouled plugs too but after trying to work that out it does not seem to make a difference.

I can't pull the power back below 1200 RPM or it will quit. I run it at 1300 and it is very rough and wants to stall. At the point when I feel that it will stall I give it a shot of the "low" fuel boost pump and it recovers but still runs rough. This may continue for 1 or 2 more times and then it smoothes out enough to run at around 1200 RPM...roughly but it does not stall out on me. After I have been flying and then land it seems to "work" better and the engine allows me to bring it below 1000RPM however it still has a roughness about it.

FYI...the rear engine runs fine.

In any case I have the engineer on it and he knows the 337 very well.

Thanks in advance for every ones input!
