| Brief Description: |
First engine start!! |
|
|
Added a little more fuel to tanks (total of 5 gals). Did a thorough preflight and started engine. Oil pressure came up immediately, little bleeding of coolant required. Everything worked perfectly. Ran for a total of about 10 mins. Post run squawks: Slight oil drip at bottom of engine, Rotor tach not working, some bits of belt on oil tank. Also, the exhaust headers are smoking a lot. Need to check clearance on rotor tack sensor, locate oil leak, and check all belts for tension and wear. |
