Complex Engine Management / Oil on window ?
 

I die trying to get to know how to deal with the motor management.
Each time i play this "junk' comes up to my window (watc hthe sreenshot).

I take care not to come over 30 000 Rpm, flying at 1.4 ata, managinf the rest with prop pitch.

My radiator is open and my oil cooler as well.
Nevertheless i always damage "junk" comes to my window.
Is it the oil?
How to avoid it ?
What temperature must be when in what range, what is the max ,what the minimum.

My engine is sometimes shaking. Dunno if it is the wind, although i dont think so.So what makes my engine shaking? I guess this has alls sth to with each other.
Would be great if someone could explain me the "whys" and "howtos"

Maybe a technical manual would have been more senseful to print instead a spit manual and a nose-rag.

Switch on the damage reports in one of your info windows. Then you'll be able to see what's happening. My no.1 reason for oil spill like that is the oil seal(s) blowing due to oil temperature being too high. If you're encountering that as well, I'd suggest opening the relevant radiator(s).

When the engine's shaking, try adjusting your mixture.

The 109 mixture settings are dichtome: 100% or 0% :grin: .

Its my guess your running your mix to lean, As its a combat sim and your not having to save fuel run rich mix,

Ya might wanna keep it under 30,000 rpm..... that's a touch much :-P

not only check temps, check oilpressure as well. That might be the thing causing you trouble.

First when you see ata you are flying a german plane -> anything above 2500 rpm -> bad!!
Keep the oil-rad half open and the water-rad between half and full open.
Be aware that in the 109 the indicator for the water-rad doesn't shows its position, rather it shows if its opened, neutral or closing atm.
For the actual pos. of the water-rad watch for the pins on the wings.
Contrary to RL they are showing full when rad is open.
Forget everything about cem learned in il2-1946!!!!
The intend is to survive AND flying home!

One of the main causes of 'vibration' is that the Merline engine modelling is off. It is constantly misfiring due to overmodelled negative G effect (the effect that cuts the engine when they used to push over into a nose dive). It is happening in level flight and/or slight turbulence. It is being looked into. You could turn off 'Headshake' for now to reduce the annoyance factor.

Consider 3000rpm as a WEP option only. Better stay below 2500rpm for the most part.

Open your rads man and keep an eye on temps.
