    • We are also a great resource for non biplane users, since many GA aircraft are built the same way (fabric and tube construction).

I have an 0-200 conti in my bipe. I checked fuel from gascolator. Clean. When I cold start engine the prop rolls (after prime) 1/2 turn and starts and purrs as pretty as you please. I taxi/warm-up for approx. 15 min. The engine will die (as if being fuel starved. Sit 15-20 secs and it restarts and purrs like a kitten. I am going nuts trying to figure it out. Flew it before I bought it. 84 hrs TT engine and airframe. Any help much appreciated
