Default JPI Data Question

After seeing dozens of turbine twins and singles during the last week, they
had my mouth watering also. My aerial applicator is currently converting a
Air Tractor 301 to a 401-B w/ PT6, this will be his 3rd PT6 AirTractor and
he loves them, even though when maintenance is finally required, it is more
costly, the bills come much less frequently.

I don't know about you, but all this data from recip engines
reminds me that I really want a turbine powered airplane, with
the simple and smooth operation they provide.

Too bad they are soooo danged expensive.

How about an intermittent leak on the induction tube on that cylinder?

I
could see a slightly lean mixture resulting in the behavior you noted.


That seems to make sense and something I'll check.
Thanks
