I put the Ivo back on and left the pitch in the "nuetral" adjustment
position. While my tach only read 1500 rpm I was cuising easily at 80 and
90-92 flat out. My climb was 700 fpm from 2000' to 2700' at 60 f. Perhaps
this 1915cc VW redrive has hope yet. Me thinks the tach is WAY off. I was
setting the pitch wrong. Does anyone know if the loop wire needs cut on a
Westach 2AT3-2 when hooked up to a Slick mag? Ron NB Ore.

Ron, at 1500 rpm it sounds as if your tach is indeed incorrect. Try
a "Tiny Tach" as a backup until you know what you're dealing with.
Lots of modelers have them, but they're cheap to buy also.
