• The Biplane Forum is a large global active community of biplane builders, owners and pilots. From Pitts to Skybolts, to older barnstormers, all types are welcome. In addition to our active community, our content boasts exhaustive technical information which is often sought after for projects and maintenance. This information has accumulated over the 12+ years the forum has been in existence.

    The Biplane Forum is a private community. Subscriptions are only $49.99/year or $6.99/month to gain access to this great community and unmatched source of information not found anywhere else on the web. We are also a great resource for non biplane users, since many GA aircraft are built the same way (fabric and tube construction). Annual membership also comes with two BiplaneForum.com decals.

My engine always starts idles and runs fine when cold and preflight. While taxiing in, however, I frequently have trouble with it idling properly without poping or backfire type of complants. Why might this be?
My usual ops is after moderate aeros, I Normally fly for about 10 min at about 2200 rpm(fixed pitch). When I land I pull the throttle to idle abeam the numbers and keep it there till taxi in. The idle mixture is set properly. I can't imagine my head temps being hot...

Thanks
