Helping my flying mate who just bought a used k21 mi less than 200 hours. Wankel motor worked fine on first two launches. Third launch low rpm pre mature landing. Voltage is good, fuel at the injector is good. Motor will not start. Just pops and backfires. Any wankel wizards out there?

I've sent you an email for how to join the Schleicher Wankel-powered sailplane forum. Lots of
experience there with the Mi (and the carbureted 26E).
