I've noticed this in the past, LOP in cold air down low does not work. The engine runs rough. On a hot summer day it does not.
Yesterday it was same, 34F, MP 20" and fuel flow 6 gph. Eased the mixture forward to peak, or just a little rich of peak, and the engine liked it a lot, got very smooth. But going on lean side of peak it does not.
Could have something to do with the density of air, I don't know. It should not matter but it seems it does.
