My Great Plaines 2180 VW has a little miss at low RPM 1100 or less. What I 
might call a bit of a stumble miss but very slight. By 1500 RPM or better, 
everything seems fine. 
It seems to me that it has always done this but I will ask for advice giving 
you as much information as I can.

Running a single mag ignition, autolite automotive plugs ( they are the 
substitute for the Bosch WA 8 plugs GPAS calls for) narrow gap .028 per Steve 
Bennets book., Zenith Carb, K&N cone filter.

As I mentioned, it seems to me it has always done this but I am wondering if 
some day on final , I go to pull the throttle back and it quits on me. So I 
will also mention that I am burning off some older Av gas, many months old as 
the plane has been under various stages of getting it back together.

Also, just a little note of interest. I just had Jet Hot ceramic coat my 4 into 
one exhaust. They do it inside and out verses others who only do the outside of 
the exhaust.

Anyway, since the exhaust coating, I can now peg the tach past 3500 RPM verses 
previously getting 3200 RPM and maybe on a rare perfect day getting around 3400 
RPM. I mention the Jet Coating since that is the only thing I did to the engine 
and then getting a sudden increase in RPM. Yes the days right now are cooler 
but the engine has 56 hours and has run on many cool days before.
