[QUOTE="timetraveller, post: 24445, member: 456"] Just a thought here. It is being assumed that the ESA is too rigid but is it? John Emmanuel built a jig which allowed him to run the engine with the primary cover off to use a stroboscope to see what happened to the standard ESA. He discovered that it is really like a switch. Once load is taken up it immediately goes to the maximum position in one direction and on the over run goes all the way to the maximum direction in the other. That is, the standard B/C set up is not rigid enough. Possibly why the 'D's had extra springs? I was just wondering if your problem was that the springs are too week and essentially the ESA is locked one way or the other once it is under load. Just a thought. [/QUOTE]
