I have been remiss in updating this thing, even though I may be to the only
person to read it!

My last entry, I was complaining of missing. I found that problem. The FI CHT
was loose! That would cause the engine to go super rich, I think, and not run right!

After refitting the CHT, the engine ran very hot. So, I added a potentiometer
in place of the CHT, andnow can tune the engine on the fly.

I checked it, and found that the engine will run cool, with about 1.8 Kohms in the
circuit. This should be pretty rich, but at least the engine is under 400 degrees
on my CHT gauge. My gas mileage reflectrs that, low 20's (MPG). Oh well,
at least it isn't burning up. Part of that may bethe lack of engine tin over the
engine. There is a hole on the port side for the heater fan, and a bigger hole
where the AC compressor used to be!
