One solution that works for me so far is to climb to altitude, bring back my prop and mp to cruise. Leave the mixture full rich and switch the tank. Wait for 1-2 minutes and then lean. I have been in discussions with the Mark and Orin at the factory on this. They are uncertain of the cause and want to eliminate it. =20 One IVP user switched out the fuel selector valve for the one that is being currently supplied with the kits and eliminated the problem. I am probably going to do the same and see if it also eliminates this in my plane.
