Scott, Have you noted your fuel flow at full rich and leaned when taxiing? Perhaps it is a problem with my instrumentation but I've done this with my Lyc IO-360 and have seen no measurable drop in fuel flow. Any throttle position above a stuttering rough uses the same fuel.

Scott,

Have you noted your fuel flow at full rich and leaned when taxiing?  Perhaps it is a problem with my instrumentation but I've done this with my Lyc IO-360 and have seen no measurable drop in fuel flow.  Any throttle position above a stuttering rough uses the same fuel.
