It seems like the options are for separate switches for high and low, a 3 way Low - Off - High and with a 3 way with the High being momentary. I think I am favoring the later with the thinking that the high boost is really only needed during start for engine prime and as Skip stated this precludes leaving the high boost on. Other thoughts? Does this apply to the IO-550 as well? Do any of you flying, use the high boost for anything else. In an emergency would you use high or low boost or try both? I am doing a IO-550 in a Legacy.
