Great idea, Dusty!  Enjoying the late spring/summer "down under"?  It's just getting darker & colder way up here!

Just completed the mod to correctly relocate my EGT probes.  Again, thanks to all, especially Vance.  I'm keen to fly it to test it out.  Looking at my carbs, it appears the previous owner knew what he was doing, setting it up slightly rich on the part-throttle needle, hanging 'em high, and with the next size larger (than Rotax recommends) needle jets.  It will be interesting to see what results.  With no cabin heat, though, fear of the dreaded freezerburn keeps me on the ground for now.  Plus, the days are so darn short, and my bird doesn't live at the airport.  Temporal overhead for launch is a bitch.

Hey, Guys, thanks for the inputs!  This sure worked for me.  I added four AN3 washers under the probes, and they steadied down right now.  I've been chasing that for six months!
