RV10, IO540 standard with 1 slick (fix timing) and 1 mag, 2 blade hartzel, standard cowling
-Just wondering if I should start looking for a leak in the induction system or is this a normal behavior?
1. with the Engine Off ( 0 RPM ): I'm reading 29.8 inHg MAP
2. WOT static pwr at Take Off ( 2700 RPM): reading 28.7 inHg MAP
There is a 0.9 difference in MAP (WOT with engine running vs. engine Off)
Further the pressure at the airfield was 29.94 inHg, so I'm assuming the MAP reading is of by 0.14 ?
Data point: I'm reading 22.9 inHg with WOT at 7400 PA (which seems to be on the lower side when reading other posts ?)
Thanks,
