Hi All,

   

   For the 582 pilots , Where have you got your low speed mix set? 1 Turn? 1 1/4 turn? Mine is set to 1 turn and seems ruff under 3000 rpm!

idle jet wont chang  a rough  runing  engin.  An  B gear box with a lot of 

hours on it and  big  heavy  prop will run rough. or a un balanced prop.      go

I have mine at around 1-1/4 but varying to 1 turn really doesn't make a lot

of difference. Carb synch helps a lot but even so mine still runs fairly

rough below 2,800 also (always has).



I have my throttle set so that I can reduce to max 1600 on the ground but

never do - I always warm up around 2800 and only really cut the throttle

fully when on approach. Then it idles up to around 2,000 due to airflow over

the prop. I never let it run below 2,000 as it is just too rough and puts

too much strain on things.

Often a new set of idle jets will fix the problem.  They generally run too

rich with the originals.  They're a bit pricey, but effective.
