Ed,
The only thing I know about #1 is that 71 inches is
the correct length for a C85. Reference #2, I recently asked and was told
start with 1 1/2 turns out and adjust from there. My understanding is turn
lean till slightly rough then richen 1/4 to 1/2 turn. Reference #3, I shut
the engine down each time to adjust the mixture, but have seen brave A&P
adjust with engine running. However, I'm no authority on any of
this. Maybe someone else will have a better answer.
Roger

No increase in RPM. ???(2) Will not idle below 900-1000 RPM. How many turns should there be in the mixture knob to get a smooth engine before I begin the adjust the idle?(3) Must this adjustment be made while the engine is running?Seems suicidal!Ed Robbins============================================================================== To leave this forum go to: http://ercoupers.com/lists.htm Search the archives on http://escribe.com/aviation/coupers-tech/
