However, after I learned how to properly shut down my engine, I found that I really don't need it anymore. When you are ready to shut down, run your engine up to about 1800 RPM for 30 to 60 seconds, then throttle back to idle and immediately (before the RPM drops below 1300) yank the mixture to cut-off. Also, leaning the mixture while you are taxing back to the barn helps to solve the lead fouling problems. Bob Jude N65BJ >Does anyone have experience using TCP to help with those pesky chucks of lead that like to accumulate in the lower plugs. Does the stuff really work? Are there any drawbacks to its use? Chris Zavatson N91CZ 360 std www.N91CZ.com
