Hi All,

Just curious what power setting and fuel flow is normally used?

I changed from the manual mixture control to an automatic mixture control, and
don't have it set up properly.  Running too rich based on the black exhaust.

I nomally cruise at 2400 RPM.  Unfortunetly, I only remember that with 16.3" MP
(full throttle) at 17,500' (-4 degree C oat) the fuel flow was 5.5 gph.  The
performance graphs indicate about 42 hp for between 3 to 3.5 gph.

I'll be getting some new numbers at lower altitudes in the next couple days.
