				Hi all, my formation partner had a bit of engine trouble last time we flew then I took the same plane up for a shake down and got the same result -
 
 cruise power, 10 minutes into the flight, engine cuts abruptly, goes, cuts again, goes. Mixture full rich, carb heat on, didn't do it again but then these items were actioned after running fine for a few seconds.
 
 The cuts were hard, as in no power not just roughness, and only for a split second, but enough to get your attention.
 
 Speaking to two local CJ/Yak experts and they say it is likely the 'mid-range' mixture adjustment (I think the CJ book calls it 'cruise' mixture, same thing).
 
 Has anyone here experienced the same? Would be curious as to what an earth is going on, intermittent failures are the worst!

				I would say your mag coils are going bad after getting hot.  Experienced it myself and know of another case and once mags were either replaced or at least the coil/s the problem disappeared.  I would consult the experts directly though for more in-depth troubleshooting.
 
 Good luck- Hoot

				I suspect you're getting air in the system someplace. The pressure carburetor will not tolerate any air bubbles. Check the gas collator had all the fittings.

				Mag coil going bad will also do that. Typically occurs about 10 to 15 minutes of the flight.

				my experience with that problem is the same as Doc mentioned. the aircraft would run fine until warmed up, normally in flight, then dramatic misses. replaced the coils in the magnetos, the problem went away.

				Diving? 80 & 8?
 Airspeed builds...engine starts to miss?
 Dennis Savarese is the man to talk to...he will tell you the fix...I would tell you how to do it, but do not wish the glory...For Dennis informed me, and it worked.

				I have to reapectfully disagree with Doc Kemp on that accord...I suspect a broken lead in the ignition harness, or a cracked ceramic in one if you 18 existing plugs...

 Mag coil going bad will also do that. Typically occurs about 10 to 15 minutes of the flight.

  Hi all, my formation partner had a bit of engine trouble last time we flew then I took the same plane up for a shake down and got the same result -
  
  cruise power, 10 minutes into the flight, engine cuts abruptly, goes, cuts again, goes. Mixture full rich, carb heat on, didn't do it again but then these items were actioned after running fine for a few seconds.
  
  The cuts were hard, as in no power not just roughness, and only for a split second, but enough to get your attention.
  
  Speaking to two local CJ/Yak experts and they say it is likely the 'mid-range' mixture adjustment (I think the CJ book calls it 'cruise' mixture, same thing).
  
  Has anyone here experienced the same? Would be curious as to what an earth is going on, intermittent failures are the worst!

				Adjust my what?? v-a-l-v-e-s? Like consonants?
 You do many annuals? You must be “rich"
 I’m not “rich”, no nothing about radials, why should I, we have guys like you that are willing to do it while we lounge by the pool, fly, camp, hike, bike, fly some more etc.So everyone gets what they want. 
 I see your company name says “Volunteer” well, don’t. Problem for you, solved.
 Shot mine, NOT bullet proof.

				Do you "no" or "Know" nothing about radials?  
 I'm not on this list to get into a dick measuring contest. Your wife may be hotter than mine, but I can assure you that I pay more attention to my airplanes than my own "better half"
 Let me remind you we are all on this list to help each other...

 Mag coil going bad will also do that. Typically occurs about 10 to 15 minutes of the flight.

  Hi all, my formation partner had a bit of engine trouble last time we flew then I took the same plane up for a shake down and got the same result -
  
  cruise power, 10 minutes into the flight, engine cuts abruptly, goes, cuts again, goes. Mixture full rich, carb heat on, didn't do it again but then these items were actioned after running fine for a few seconds.
  
  The cuts were hard, as in no power not just roughness, and only for a split second, but enough to get your attention.
  
  Speaking to two local CJ/Yak experts and they say it is likely the 'mid-range' mixture adjustment (I think the CJ book calls it 'cruise' mixture, same thing).
  
  Has anyone here experienced the same? Would be curious as to what an earth is going on, intermittent failures are the worst!

				However..."engine cuts abruptly, goes, cuts again, goes. Mixture full rich, carb heat on, didn't do it again but then these items were actioned after running fine for a few seconds."
 If you went full rich, then turned on the carb heat (making the mixture even more rich) that's answers you own dilemma / question.

				Without any doubt the problem will be a magneto coil - we have experienced
 this on at least 30 aircraft over the last 25 years! The important point is
 that it is related to engine temperature, so only becomes apparent after
 15/25 minutes of flight. If you then land and allow the engine to cool, the
 problem will disappear. But, it will get steadily worse.
 
 One aspect that I have never understood is that the engine will cut
 completely, usually only for a second or so but still very alarming, and it
 does not seem to run on the other magneto for that brief period!
 
 This is why, when we overhaul magnetos we then test them in a
 high-temperature box (well in excess of operating temperatures) for an hour
 to make sure that this problem will not happen.

				Hi all, thanks for the on and off list replies. Very greatly appreciated believe me, the owner has delivered the aircraft to the mechanics and they were starting with their belief it is the mixture setting.
 
 He has been informed and will be starting with new magneto coils instead now though!
 
 I had a points spring break on one mag once, so it killed the mag completely and I do remember an attention-grabbing splutter and then the engine continued sounding more or less normal (was at low power on base). Strange how one mag dropping off seems to momentarily affect the other...
 
 PS how good are forums! no way we would have got this analysis so quick anytime before, and while some of it dubious, absolutely no different to riding around to a different mechanics/pilots hangar and asking their opinion

				If its the fuel pump, you should see it on the fuel pressure gauge.
 if it is the valve train, that should be a problem noticed at all times, a loss of perforce irrespective of time and temperature.
 If it is always happening after a certain period of time in flight everytime, its coil related. We had this exact problem a year ago, took us forever to find it. Dennis and Jill finally got us on the right path.
 Good luck.

 However..."engine cuts abruptly, goes, cuts again, goes. Mixture full rich, carb heat on, didn't do it again but then these items were actioned after running fine for a few seconds."
 If you went full rich, then turned on the carb heat (making the mixture even more rich) that's answers you own dilemma / question.
 Change the fuel pump

 Mag coil going bad will also do that. Typically occurs about 10 to 15 minutes of the flight.

  Hi all, my formation partner had a bit of engine trouble last time we flew then I took the same plane up for a shake down and got the same result -
  
  cruise power, 10 minutes into the flight, engine cuts abruptly, goes, cuts again, goes. Mixture full rich, carb heat on, didn't do it again but then these items were actioned after running fine for a few seconds.
  
  The cuts were hard, as in no power not just roughness, and only for a split second, but enough to get your attention.
  
  Speaking to two local CJ/Yak experts and they say it is likely the 'mid-range' mixture adjustment (I think the CJ book calls it 'cruise' mixture, same thing).
  
  Has anyone here experienced the same? Would be curious as to what an earth is going on, intermittent failures are the worst!

				Quick question.
 
 Wouldn't a coil problem only manifest itself on 1 side? A complete loss of 1 Mag shouldn't cause an abrupt and complete loss of power should it?

 if it is the valve train, that should be a problem noticed at all times, a loss of perforce irrespective of time and temperature.
 If it is always happening after a certain period of time in flight everytime, its coil related. We had this exact problem a year ago, took us forever to find it. Dennis and Jill finally got us on the right path. 
 Good luck.

 If you went full rich, then turned on the carb heat (making the mixture even more rich) that's answers you own dilemma / question.
 Change the fuel pump

 Mag coil going bad will also do that. Typically occurs about 10 to 15 minutes of the flight.

  Hi all, my formation partner had a bit of engine trouble last time we flew then I took the same plane up for a shake down and got the same result -
  
  cruise power, 10 minutes into the flight, engine cuts abruptly, goes, cuts again, goes. Mixture full rich, carb heat on, didn't do it again but then these items were actioned after running fine for a few seconds.
  
  The cuts were hard, as in no power not just roughness, and only for a split second, but enough to get your attention.
  
  Speaking to two local CJ/Yak experts and they say it is likely the 'mid-range' mixture adjustment (I think the CJ book calls it 'cruise' mixture, same thing).
  
  Has anyone here experienced the same? Would be curious as to what an earth is going on, intermittent failures are the worst!

				That is what one would assume, and I have no explanation for the fact that the coil beginning to break down in one magneto will cause rough running and indeed stopping, but it definitely does!

				Yes, it does Ernie.  If you've never experienced a coil failure in one 
 mag, I can tell you it WILL get your attention because if feels like the 
 engine completely shuts down for one heartbeat, then picks back up again.
 
 I was told by someone with a lot more life experiences than me that 
 another older radial (can't remember if it was one of the small 
 Continental's like was used on the Stearmanor Wright or Pratt)the 
 engineers determined when the coil failed like being discussed here, the 
 fuel charge through the supercharger (ie: fuel distribution point) is 
 completely purged for one heartbeat causing the sensation of a complete 
 shutdown for a few millisecondsand then recharged and the engine picks 
 back up.  It's really weird. But I can tell you from many experiences, 
 that's what it feels like.  Maybe someone onthe list can better define 
 why it feels like a complete shutdown for a heartbeat.
 
 FWIW, I have been able to duplicate the problem on the ground by heating 
 up the engine to above about 250 degrees C as read on the CHT. As 
 Richard Goode has stated, it definitely is a heat problem with the coil 
 which typically occurs in the first 20-30 minutes of the flight. 
 Repeating it on the ground is more difficult. But it can be done. If you 
 can get the coil hot enoughon the ground, the engine will start to 
 misfire. Once THAT occurs, you can isolate the problem to the left or 
 right mag with the mag switch.

  Wouldn't a coil problem only manifest itself on 1 side? A complete 
  loss of 1 Mag shouldn't cause an abrupt and complete loss of power 
  should it?

      If its the fuel pump, you should see it on the fuel pressure gauge.
 
      if it is the valve train, that should be a problem noticed at all
      times, a loss of perforce irrespective of time and temperature.
 
      If it is always happening after a certain period of time in flight
      everytime, its coil related. We had this exact problem a year ago,
      took us forever to find it. Dennis and Jill finally got us on the
      right path.
 
      Good luck.

      stops. starts.
 
      However..."engine cuts abruptly, goes, cuts again, goes. Mixture
      full rich, carb heat on, didn't do it again but then these items
      were actioned after running fine for a few seconds."
 
      If you went full rich, then turned on the carb heat (making the
      mixture even more rich) that's answers you own dilemma / question.
