    The engine should be mounted so that the moment transmitted from the engine to the mount can be on the broadest base as possible [?]. The shock mounts used should be as stiff as possible, because the engine vibration can result in a mounting that is not secure. This leads to problems with the fuel mixture (i.e.

    the diaphragm pump. When choosing the impulse line and the fuel line, take care to use rigid lines, which do not expand under pressure. The impulse line should not exceed a maximum length of 150 mm and a minimum inside radius of 6 mm. In any case it is advantageous to position the fuel tank above the engine, since this ensures a certain pressure to the fuel supply.
  • Page 12: Engine Instruments

    1.3 Engine instruments It is urgently recommended that the cylinder head temperature, the exhaust gas temperature, and the fuel pressure be monitored. Proper adjustment of the engine guarantees its trouble free functioning under the prescribed installation conditions. When engine installation is not carried out by Göbler-Hirth Engines, there are sometimes problems, such as insufficient flow of cool air, a fuel tank installed too low for ascending and descending flight/uphill and downhill driving, and it is absolutely necessary for secure engine operation that the cylinder head temperature, exhaust gas...

    3.4.1.3 Cleaning the Carburetors Turn off fuel switch before cleaning carburetors. Open the spring clip which holds the float chamber against the carburetor. Move float chamber downward carefully since it is filled with fuel. Remove the fuel from float chamber along with any debris. Should debris be in float chamber, the fuel filter in the intake line between tank and fuel pump should be checked and, if necessary, replaced.
