Just stirring the pot here.

Man I see a Genipod generator from Jim but see a Prince prop and not a Frank Johnson Performance prop...... Thought you Texas Boys  banded together.

Just kidding. Looking good.

Yep, the GeniPod fit right in there real nice - I bought that Prince off Joe S. about 3 years ago and put it on to start with... It may be a bit under propped for the motor... will know more after some more runs..  I am fighting a spitting carb right now, darn thing was dripping at idle and runup, adjusted the floats... took care of the idle dripping, but when I taxi it, it starts spitting again, go back to the hangar and it stops before I know it... float needle looks good, but may have to look at a replacement just to take that off the list.  Engine is running great, so just can't put my finger on the problem.  Frank may get an order sooner or later from me any way.  That would be the way I would go if I have to have another prop for sure..

Hugh

What set up do you have engine wise. The big Casler 45 horse or the 37 hp?

I had a spitting carb with my Engleman engine and I changed something in the carb but can't quite remember what it was. Cinco demayo   might have something to do with it.  It did fix the problem though. When I think of it I'll repost.

I do not have the Casler 45 - I am running a motor I built with 94mm cyl and 69mm stock crank, so around 37 or so hp... Yeah, when the fog of Cinco Oh MyOh wears off and you remember what you changed out let me know.  We will hit on it sooner or later :-)
