I understand from reading all the papers from Lycoming that they recommend that you run 50? ROP with my setup....
My question is what do you consider peak? When the first cylinder peaks or the last one?
Also, which cylinder do you use for determining the 50?? The first to peak or the last?
On my engine, when the last one peaks, the first to peak is over on the LOP side. I assume this is because it is a Carb setup.
All I was ever taught was the old method of lean till rough and then richen it a turn to a turn and a half.....
My CHT's run within 20? of each other. My EGT's run close except #2 which is always 100-125? less than the other three. It tracks consistently there so I think it is a proble placement issue. Overall my EGT's run higher than what others say theirs do. I think I placed my probes higher than most apparently???? The engine runs great and makes great power so it must be placement.
