Hi Marcel,
as you know, I had the very same problem with my Trigear (same engine), however
not that extreme (I didn't have to shut down but came close to the CHT-limit
on the ground in summer - never when flying). Like you, I didn't build my Europa
myself but bought it second hand for the very same reason of lacking knowledge
and skills.
If you go to the appropriate thread (a few weeks ago), you can read, what I did
on my aircraft modifying the standard XS-cowling without too much effort.
However
I don't know, if my measures are applicable also to the Monowheel.
I can now also run my engine for extended times on the ground in high
temperatures
>30C. Under no conditions do I experience any cooling problems in the air.
For sure I would accept Gilles offer to help you with the cooling issues! Good
luck!
