This may be a carb issue as I just installed a freshly overhauled carb, but want to get other thoughts. The past few starts my engine will start, then want to quit after running well for about 7-8 seconds. I find I have to run it at quite a high RPM (1300 RPM or so) or it wants to keep dying on me until it has been running for a few minutes. When it is running it is running smoothly, but just wants to die. Once it is warm the problem completely goes away. Post flight it will idle just fine.
I'm not seeing any big difference on EGT/CHT from one cylinder to another. I'm guessing I my have adjusted the carb too lean for the idle setting, but wanted to get other thoughts before I start digging.
O-360, with P-Mags (timing was checked and is good)
Sensenich GA carbon fiber prop (lightweight so not as much inertia)
Plugs are new
Thoughts?
Thanks,
Rick
