Carb. air temp. gauge is the one on the lower left side.Before starting the engine it should show the outside air temperature.After engine start it will fall.At outside temperatures of ~20°C it will show ~0°C carb. air temperature.Don´t mixup pitot heater (The switch below the avionics switch) with the Carburettor heater (the large lever with the silvery knob just in front of the stick).Finn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

guenseli 76 Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 So, only one question is left:Is it right, that Cyl Head Overheating let engine go out but have no permanent Consequences or damages?How will the plane behave with Oil overheating? (I haven't managed it till now to overheat oil before Cyl head.... but I'm trying on )ok, now, if the failuresytem of the addon is completely checked I will try to fly a while without failures thank you guys for supporting and this really cool pane!!! fantastic!

guenseli 76 Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 Cylinder head overheating should do permament damage !Ah, ok. So this is maybe an issue as you say.I can overheat the cylinder without problems and engine is correctly going off. (Magneto Switches and Mixture Lever is going to OFF position, too and are not moveable any more)If CHT is falling down roundabout to 200 degree I can klick magnetos and mixture lever and restart engine.Same behaviour with Carb ice, by the way.
