Engine Operating Tips/Rich or Lean of Peak

[Bob Cook]

Ernie

ROP = rich of peak
LOP = lean of peak.
< = less
>= more


Compare the TCM power / fuel specs and then compare the POH and note where the POH compares with fuel flows...........

The manufacurers are either trying to sell fuel economy or speed which are at opposite ends of the power spectrum.

re 4
I am not advocating or suggesting either way.

Re 7

You cannot hurt the engines at low power settings as pre-ignition
only occurs at higher power settings, however, condensation increases, oil temp decreases, cht decreases, and carbon deposits increase.

I know how I like to run my engines and I am not about to tell anyone how to run theirs.
