Blenheim operating limits and checklists

[phoenix1963]

My thinking is: governor failures are because oil at the right temperature is not getting to the pitch mechanism; gasket failures are because oil or cylinder pressure or temperature is too high (maybe because I'm running at too low revs for the throttle setting); carburetta failures because it needs heat.

But maybe that's too simplistic?

I did notice, when incorrectly running too lean, that it was impossible to have oil temps and cylinder temps both correct.
