: My Comanche has an O-540 and at 22/23 I'm burning about 13 Gph with 100LL. : If there was an MOGAS STC for the Comanche I'd give it a try but that will : never happen. I talked with Petersen about the PA-24. It hydro-locks the carb and floods the engine, so no STC for it. Basically the opposite of vapor-locking AIUI... boiling fuel pressurizes the carb and forces liquid fuel out. That's different from vapor-locking where boiling in the lines prevents pumping and it goes dry. -Cory -- ************************************************** *********************** * Cory Papenfuss * * Electrical Engineering candidate Ph.D. graduate student * * Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University * ************************************************** ***********************
