Huh??? On my 230 hp O-470, I cruise at 23-squared, without any fancy
engine monitors. Using the "pull-until-it-feels-about-right" method of leaning, I get 12 gph. I can lean to that fuel flow without any undue engine sounds, too. But my EGTs go well over 1500 degrees, and my CHTs push 350 when I do. I would rather burn a bit more gas. On a side note, as I asked you earlier, what part # spark plugs are you running? I am curious due to your undue propensity to fouling while running avgas. I have no idea, and I don't have my logs handy. However, as I said, I will be replacing them with a hotter-burning plug when they wear out. Of course, without all that lead fouling, they may never wear out! ;-) -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination"
