914UL Low Oil Temp-CHT and RPM
Hello!
I'm having issues with my engine temp which i think might be the cause of low static rpm and low maximum rpm.
So even with 10 minutes of preheating the engine before take off,the maximum oil temp i can read is somewhere between 50-60(OAT 30 degrees C). Also the CHT hangs around 60.Oil pressure in the middle of green arc.
Normally the past years static rpm readings were around 5400 to 5500,with same prop but now i sometimes get the 5300 and sometimes 5200! rarely it hits the 5400 rpm without takeoff roll.( I ve checked the pressure and temp which are at sea level at past years and im at sea level also with same situations) Even after takeoff and in flight i cant pass through 5400 rpm!
I check the manifold pressure during the max throttle and it is within the maximum limits of 39.9.
Here is a pictures of my gauges when it hits maximum heat!
BTW aircraft type is an MTO SPORT 2010 with 914 UL engine. Engine hour is 400h.
Im not a technician but before going to take the acft to maintenance i would like to have a clue about the situation. Cold engine and low rpm gives me clue about maybe a combustion problems? CARB parts and fuel pumps are at their 30s hour since new.
Also reading low rpm might be a different problem than cold engine maybe. I was thinking of throttle position sensor, might it be faulty? Or maybe bad mixture ratio?!
