Those are pretty good numbers for a 4seat plane, even a -10, at that fuel flow. Have you checked it at around 11gph?

Thanks,

Bill,

 

I see around 1650F max. At cruise altitude running less than 30”MP I can lean to about 1475F.

The EM-2 mixture is working fine now, Tracy.  I appreciate the rapid turnaround.

 

I wanted to ask you about the EGTs I should expect from the Renesis.  I am getting EGTs in the upper 17s.  I think I expected them to be a couple of hundred lower than that.  I don’t doubt the accuracy because the EGTs report a pretty accurate OAT when I first arrive at the hangar and before I start the engine.

 

I did some relearning of the EC-2 during the flight today between 18 and 29 inches manifold pressure.  This was done at 2K feet.  The MAP was lowered considerably and now the mid point of the graph is pretty close to the knob center, maybe 12:30-1:00 o’clock.

 

A good explanation of how to lean would be very helpful for me at this point.  Also I am wondering what fuel burn most are getting at cruise.  I am still calibrating this function, but I would like to know what to expect if I ever get it right.
