Is it possible that using the wrong paint primer can affect engine reliability? (kidding)...... BUT..... my engine quit at the 3 ½ turn point in a 6 turn spin. That got my attention but…… when the prop did not immediately start to windmill when I stopped spinning I was surprised….. and went for the boost pump and starter. I have a high compression IO-375 and a low mass Whirlwind 200 RV prop. Does anybody have any insight if this was normal behavior? I subsequently did a 4 spin turn with no issues and it kept running. Here is a link to the video.
