				What happens when you do a mag check when the engine is running rough?  If  
 you have CHT or EGT gaugges, what are they showing when running rough?   
 What happens aboute the rough onset altitude, or do you get it above  
 that?  The engine smooths out by itself when running at lower altitude?   
 Does the roughness correspond with how hard the engine is worked, such as  
 on a hard climb as opposed to an easy climb?  What happens if you climb at  
 WOT through the normal onset altitude, or do you already?

				Hello James.
 
 My friend did not dare do the mag check during this situation. The  
 plan was to try it the next flight. EGT show the same temp. CHT analog  
 meters not very steady to judge any difference. We have not tried  
 climbing to an altitude higher than 1500 feet. Does not seem to change  
 during climb or when under hard work. Last time we did the test, the  
 plane climbed almost 1400 feet/min and with no hesitation. Roughness  
 started when we leveled off and reduced the throttle below 5000 rpm.
 
 Thank you for your help.
 
 Johann G.
