 |
|
Searched the archives for a ballpark estimate of 582 oil consumption and
found only a couple posts.
My Carb and oil feed seem to be synced according to manual but over the
year noticed a bit darker plugs than would like to see and motor smoking
a bit.
Only 30 hours on the rebuild.
Exactly an hour of flight resulted in just a hair over one pint (16 oz)
According to my estimates that would be about 40:1.
Earlier posts said anywhere from 50:1 to 70:1
Any new suggestions?
