Lycoming O-360 F excessive RPM drop during magneto check
Hello Everybody out there,
I got a problem on my overhauled O-360-F1AD during magnet check.
Since first run after overhaul RPM drops by 140 RPM during magnet check on both magnets. The difference is max. 10 to 20 RPM.
New installed EDM830 shows on all 4 cylinders slighly higher CHT and EGT. The guy who did the overhaul checked everything without finding any abnormals. In his opinion RPM drop and higher temperatures will be eliminated after first 20 hours.
Magnets are new, harness is new, spark plugs are new and I already replaced both magnets by different new ones - same problem!
Fuel Flow is sufficient and intakes are checked for any leaks.
Even after engine overhaul my recent experience of RPM drop during magnet check is between 50 and 75 RPM.
Does anybody have an idea where to look at next?
Thank you, brgds
