Re: Robin 295 losing power as it warms up.
Addendum: I don't know if Robin engines have "interference" valves, but if so, be sure you get the cam timing correct first go.
Just sayin' |

Re: Robin 295 losing power as it warms up.
Just ran a compression test on the engine. Both cylinders are showing at 170 and 169 PSI. As far as I am aware, this cart was only owned by an older man who was pretty gentle with it.

Re: Robin 295 losing power as it warms up.
I believe I have found the issue. At the suggestion of a local cart mechanic, I disconnected the muffler and it ran much better. I suspect, as he suggested, my muffler is blocked.
For anybody that is searching, the symptoms were: Loss of power Engine would bog down as it warmed up (RPM drop) Back pressure and fuel mist coming out of the carb. |
