Lanc KB700 Merlin Problems

[prem895]

I was at Hamilton the other day, and it seems as though they are still having a fair bit of trouble out of the far left port side engine, as the pictures show. I was here just 3 months ago and on that particular occasion they where giving the same engine a full run up. I have a short vid of that, but not sure if I will be able to download it. It was also sporting it's new scheme, but the picture i got is pretty crap. I will get more shots on the next short drive. You can also see a new rebuilt 5th powerplant.

Thanks for posting. No idea what issue, if any, the engine has but running the engine occasionally doesn't necessarily mean there's a problem with it. Could be as simple as a leaky hose that they are trying to track down but it could also mean they are having some challenges.
