Engine is an O-235- C1 with an MA3A carb., without the primer pump.
Flown almost 600 hours and never happened before, and now its happened twice in two flights. Not flying it until I can figure this out.
I just finished a very comprehensive condition inspection.
I did replace the fuel filters.
I did not check the fuel pressure afterwards because I didn't think of it at the time.
100 hours on new mags.
Checked timing on condition inspection and it was spot on.
No change to approach and landing procedure. Carb heat full, mixture just slightly leaned. Same as I have been doing for 600 hours.
In both cases the engine died when I pulled the throttle to idle as I was rolling out. In both cases it started right up afterwards.
I would appreciate any and all troubleshooting ideas.
Thx!
