Good topic and interesting replies.

Sleeve Wing,

You said:

" Reducing the RPM when neg. G forces come into play will allow the engine to produce thrust a little longer, prevent the cylinder bores being washed with neat fuel when the oil pressure drops and will also prevent the engine from inadvertantly speeding up before oil pressure is reinstated".

This is an interesting statement, could you explain the first two parts of this please?
