Carl, you've done no wrong. You've indeed offered insight as to the possible cause of high oil consumption. Something every owner needs to consider while topping the 0-200 to 6 quarts, every flight.

I didn't find anything offensive about your post, Carl.

Me either. I enjoy reading Carl's posts and have learned a lot from him and think he is a wealth of knowledge to our forum.

Thanks, guys! I'm sure it was just a misunderstanding. It's a good reminder that what we THINK we're saying in print doesn't always come across the way we intended. I always proof-read my posts (and often edit) for just that reason.

No hard feelings!

If I had more time and a hangar to work in, boy I'd love to have this plane. Perfect candidate for wheel skis!

Drop 160 horses on this and I've got my STOL plane.

Carl:
Your post was correct and polite. Not sure why someone would take offense to it. Besides, the term "excessive oil consumption" is highly subjective. Especially starting at the 6 qt level. I must have missed where the actual amount was stated. I rarely have to add oil when I keep it at 5.25 (5 of Aeroshell 100Plus and a cup of cam guard), but when I tried 6 qts. I ended up with oil all over the belly. You are highly knowledgeable, keep your thoughts and opinions coming.

I don't know about anyone else, but I took no offense at Carl's post. I value his insight and knowledge about our aircraft and am glad to see him back on the forum.

Some more pics from today's visit to the hangar (I threw the trickle charger on it).

Will be running it tomorrow and will PIREP engine performance from first hand knowledge.
