Alouette II Artouste II C-6 starting problem
Ahhh!!!?? Looks like my beloved Alouette thread has fallen off the thread pages again. Anyway, my Artouste II C-6 has decided not to start. All of the lights light correctly and I have done the atomization and spark checks = OK. I get about a 60-70 rise in EGT (T-4) but it hangs at around 100*C and the lights all stay on. Now I know I'm supposed to abort the start at around 10 seconds with no normal rise in T-4 but the clock is spinning and I'm looking at a lot of indications so I usually don't get is shut off until about 15-20 seconds. The book says look at the idle jet. Does anyone have experience that would suggest otherwise?
Note: I moved this thread to: Starting Problem Artouste C-6 for more specific input. Thanks to all who offered assistance.
