Hello,
I have an RV-9A that I bought last year. It has an O-320 with a Silver Hawk fuel injection system. Towards the end of last year, I started to notice a little bit of fuel under the cowl, at the top of the nose wheel fairing, after most flights. On further inspection, I saw that the air filter below the Silver Hawk was becoming saturated with fuel. More recently, the engine has begun sputtering when the engine is run at RPMs below 1,000. Seems to run fine at 1,000 RPM and above.
Has anyone else experienced this with their Silver Hawk, or have any tips on troubleshooting?
Thanks in advance,
Jordan
