Carb loose?
in General Tech Discussion

The 912 UL in my Kitfox IV has 12 hours on it. I have been very happy with the performance so far but have a recurring problem that needs to be addressed. The number one carburator is shifting its clock position by about 5 degrees (give or take). The clamp is tight and I can move the carb by hand to re clock to vertical but I think the fix is simply to remove the clamp stop and torque it down. I have checked the torque on the manifolds and don't find anything loose anywhere. Ideas ?
The Model IV uses reversed manifold positions so the carbs and manifolds are outboard of the engine a little which of course increases arm and moment for vibrations. The engine is sewing machine smooth.
