    Yeah, Tracy. I noted that while airborne. It made no sense to me, but each time I tried to lean to 9.2 GPH like I had used on the trip 3 days before (same power setting) the engine began to stumble and lose power. To run smooth I had to bump the FF back up to 10.3. Didn't make sense to me but I didn't have time to analyze it at the time. I'll gather some more cruise number for comparison.

Are you sure? 2000 ft higher would not explain this. Maybe mixture distribution problems?

    Good info, Matt. My prop control has been getting stiffer. I'll check it out. Stan In a message dated 4/18/2011 3:05:24 A.M.

Not a big deal on the Prop control, but on a throttle or mixture it could be a serious concern.
