    The new engine is being installed today. The mechanic was not confident that the old engine would be reliable in flight.

    Hi All. Just joined this blog - looks very useful. Some useful tips here. Does the same apply to the 462, eg. same thing about plug gaps etc? My 462 XL-Q microlight is a pig to start on the puller unless you can really spin t over (I definitely need some practice!). Any 462 owners on here with advice, suggestions - all welcome!

    Thanks

    Nigel

    HI Nigel....have yo tried sitting on the passenger seat and pulling from there...you can get a much better pull,

    Heard of guys blocking one side on the carb vent pipe and blowing in the other...floods he carb I believe,

    Or with a syringe injecting neat 2 stroke mix into the primer nipple if you have one on your carb.

    Nick.

    James, did you check the ohms on the stator plate as somepone here advisewd earlier? The reason I ask is because I had all the same symptoms as you (see topic... 582 wont start) and it was in fact the stator plate.
