My Da-40 seems to run rough at the initial warm-up period. All mag drops are fine at run up. I am thinking maybe some condensation in the fuel lines ? It never did this before. Runs fine in flight. My mags are 13 years old with only 400hrs and do not want to replace them if I don't need to.....is there an additive you can use if you get H2O in the tanks ?
Thx

Re: Start-up
Std. Pre-flight drill: Sump both belly valves, check for water, clarity, particulates. Lean immediately after startup, maybe running too rich. Negative on additives!
