Today the airplane has been seen by a specialist.
A good quick test in his opinion was the following: At sea level (we were at 600') with 40" MAP a fuel flow of at least 22 Gal/Hours should be metered / assured. The left engines was going at 22, the right one at 23. The left seems to be a little bit leaner (even at low rpm) than the right, but in his opinion the airplane is in airworthyness. The engines tuning to run exactly the same values may not be a good idea (he said) since they are not in the same manteinance state (0 vs 1200 hours). Some difference can be seen. They can also be tuned to run exactly in the same way but this will last only for few hours and then the differences will come up again.. |
