I'll check my POH - I tend to enrichen somewhat by the fuel flow on the
Shadin - maybe this is a bad habit. I'm sure I'm not over 65% on the
descent.

Michael,

What do you experience that causes you to have to enrichen your
mixture as you descend on your airplane? Are you descending while
carrying a very high power setting? I'm asking because I've flown
T182s and TR182s and have never run into a situation that required
enrichening the mixture during descent unless I leveled off at some
intermediate altitude and went to a relatively high power setting.

Otherwise, the only reason to enrichen the mixture during descent is
if the engine actually begins to run roughly. (See the POH which only
recommends enrichening if you experience engine roughness.)
