It has come time to address the uneven mixture in my carbureted O-360. I have one cylinder running a bit leaner than the others and one one running a bit richer and two in the middle with the expected CHT differences. Although my engine is probably pretty typical for a Lycoming with a carb I want to get the mixtures as close together as I can before I start working on the cooling system and evening out the temps.
I have heard of others doing some type of turbulators in the induction system or other tricks to even things out, but I wanted to get some tips from people that have done this before I just start experimenting. My exhaust is a 2 into 1 on each side and the way it is set up it will be a lot of work to change so hopefully I can make whatever changes I need on the induction end and not mess with the exhaust.
