Re: Engine ‘lumpy’ when cruising above 1500rpm

Don't forget that all engines have a vibration period. In my SP250 it's between 2000 rpm and 2500 rpm, which inconveniently is between 40 and 50 mph, a typical speed.

The engine seems rough at that time but is smooth at all higher revs.

Re: UFOs & Aliens

Regarding the 403 error notice, it's not an image in the forum software, it's generated by our server which we can't access directly. We would have to contact the server company if it happens a lot. It's probably the server getting trigger-happy. I often think that if you compose a long post over a ...

Re: UFOs & Aliens

While you are chatting about volcanoes, one theory about aliens is that they need helium 3 as a fuel source which is abundant on the moon and in the earth's core., but rare near the earth's surface. Helium 3 is spewed out from volcanoes and UFOs have been seen diving into erupting volcanoes. There i...
