Juan,
That's not what Continental says about their engine, and not what TBO Advisor recommends. Not sure what you mean. What part of the statement you quoted Continental doesn't say? -- Thomas Borchert (EDDH)

What part of the statement you quoted Continental doesn't say? Original message: At power settings above 65% you need to be concerned about running too lean, thus too hot. Your reply: Uhm, no, not at all. This is wrong. You DO have to be concerned about running too lean, which is why Continental does not recommend leaning for extended periods of time at high power settings (above 65%).

Juan,

The point is to run at the right mixture setting. That might be very rich of peak or lean of peak. Whichever you chose, "too lean" is not the answer to "what's dangerous?". -- Thomas Borchert (EDDH)

The context is a carbureted 182, an O-470. For the specific model mentioned in this thread, neither the manufacturer nor TBO Advisor recommends running lean of peak, period, or at peak EGT at power settings over 65%.
