Corky,

This text must surely be most interesting
and many people might benefit from understanding,
myself not the least.
Unfortunately it is so full of undocumented abbreviations
that I can't really make much from it.
MP must stand for manifold pressure I presume,
and EGT and CHT are wellknown cause there's instruments for them
but what the heck are ROP, ONLY, AMPLE, WOP, JIP, LOP ?

Is there perhaps a glossary web page somewhere for this kind of
terminology?

I'll make a stab at translating.
ROP -- rich of peak
LOP -- lean of peak
WOP -- I think you mistyped for WOT, wide open throttle
JIP -- I think you mistyped for JPI, a brand of engine instrument.
AMPLE -- emphasized ample, meaning enough to do the job, lots.
ONLY -- emphasized only, meaning singular, just this part of the
newsletter.
