I think I found another symptom to why I had a vibration or roughness on my second flight...maybe the first as well but I did not notice it then.
I downloaded my data from the D120 and trended my cht and egt values. All seem to track well with each other until full power for takeoff is applied. Then the #2 egt drops down fast to over 200* less than the others. When reducing power to land, it comes back in line with the rest.
I will post some graphs as soon as I can.
The engine is a carbed O-360 with two slick mags. The mags were uses and the engine is a fresh rebuild with chrome cylinders. FP prop.
I did take the mags apart and the brush is good, the cam ok, the distributor and rotor are well used. The points have some small buggers on them.
The caps test fine.
The plugs looked good on all but #1 the bottom was a little wet.
