Hmmm, this doesn't sound like what I thought we suspected, unless you're 
talking about restarts, during the heat soak after shutdown. Is that when you 
saw the problem?

I don't see how a "trapped volume" would cause a pressure spike on startup, 
and I also thought you saw an effect from changing altitude, which the 
"trapped volume" effect would have explained.  
 
Sorry to hear that you won't be able to make the Michigan Gathering.
