I'm not asking about LOP itself, but why it's so "hot" snicker a topic.
It would seem to be a simple thing to me: the cylinders run at decent
temperatures LOP or they do not. What else is there?

I know at least one person in person, and others from their postings, that
are getting success running LOP. I also know at least two persons that
think that LOP is some myth that kills cylinders. One of those two people
tells a story of someone that bought gami injectors, ran LOP, and then
cooked four of six cylinders.

What I don't understand - and what that person hasn't answered, BTW,
perhaps because he doesn't know - is why that person that "cooked" four
cylinders would have failed to see a problem immediately on his CHT probes.

So...what am I missing?

How's this for timing. Mike Busch at AVWeb just wrote a new "The Savvy Aviator"
column on this very topic. Have a look:
