Hi Stephan;
About all I can suggest is that you follow the procedure in the Maintenance
Manual and record the changes you have made by number of 'clicks" and
direction of movement (Rich or Lean)

Stephen
Forgive the question if it is too obvious, But I am assuming the gills are
closed enough to produce CHT heat in the normal range on climb out ? I
wouldn't blame mixture unless the gills were closed completely and you
could not raise temps enough.

Id say radials are not only reliable but robust. On the way to an event, my M-14P
started shaking and the CHT indication slowly decreased to less than 120. Bottom
line was that I lost power in the #4 cylinder (forward cockpit CHT thermocouple
location), but was still able to land normally at a nearby airport. Identified
the problem as the intake value not opening. A local mechanic fixed this
and I flew the airplane home without problems. That was 220 hours ago. What
I like most about radial engines is that if something does go wrong, its my
impression that theres likely to be more time to sort things out than with a GA
engine.
Just my thoughts.
