Here is the deal. Lycoming 0360, Dynon 180, CS Hartzel in a RV8A that I purchased in July. I have been searching this forum and see that a orfice fitting or a cigarette filter will calm down the MP readings. I pulled the cowling for an oil change today and decided to check the line going to the MAP sensor. I found both a orfice and what looked like a fiberglass filter in the line next to the MAP sensor. I still have some fluctuations with these installed.
Here is my question.
Should the orfice be situated close to the cylinder instead of next to the MAP sensor to get the erratic readings calmed down or is there something else I should look for?
Thanks for any pointers.
