this is m second cylinder lossed in 19 hours on this engine. these are the only two cylinders lost to date 111hr tt. i'm trying to figure out exactly what's going on with this engine but keep burning through cylinders. the only thing different with this engine from the others is the fuel pressure. all others are in the green and this one is slightl higher with pumps on. it runs stedy at 16.5 psi. i haven't ever heard hig fuel pressure cause cyliner los but i've never maintained a b-17. any thoughts from the peanut galley?

when i do loss the cylinder there is no indication either. not running rough and loss of pwer whatsoever. all pressures and temps are fine minus the above fuel pressure. but that isn't from the cylinder loss. it's always like that. i have replaced the fuel pump already to see if that may help.
