reported Carb Heat and Filter seem to have no affect on RPM/Manifold Pressure

[ShadowFrost]

Carburetor heating has no apparent affect on engine RPM or carburetor air temperature. Air filter has no affect on manifold pressure or carburetor air temperature.

 

I tested for a long time, I could not see any noticeable (but small) change in manifold pressure with the air filter in use.

(One would imagine this would also lead to a RPM drop but the manual says nothing about it so I'm not considering it currently)

 

*I tested for longer than the tracks show, had to cut replays short due to minimum file size.

 

Edit- I should have probably added neither effects carburetor air temperature either currently as far as I am aware.

Any news about this?

 

In the latest version (January 2021) the air filter does not increase the carburetor temperature.
