Cessna R/TR 182 Pilots and Owners

Cyclying my Hartzell three times worked great. Thanks again Scott.

Great info Scott. I have a Hartzell 3 blade and I have surging issues the first flight of the day. I’ve only been cycling once and air in the system explains why it settles down after a bit. Thanks.

After watching the induction video with Chase Duncan, I got motivated to have a look at mine this morning. The first thing I found, and should have seen long ago, was the missing seal on the back side of the NACA intake. My bearings are also shot on the carb air box butterfly shaft, but the ...
