Tom,
Any info available on type of engine, etc?

Bob

Folks

I believe my fuel servo is not delivering sufficient fuel to the engine in the takeoff position. Why I say this is because the difference between the peak EGT and the takeoff EGT is 70 degrees F on the leanest cylinder and 120 on the richest.  The book says this spread should be anywhere between 150 and 200 degrees F.  Why do I care you may ask.. Well my CHTs are too high at full throttle takeoff.  I have to work to keep them below 430.  I have done everything possible to maximize cooling airflow with little improvement in the CHT situation.  Anyhow, I would be interested in information from the group on the following Like to compare fuel flows at full throttle at close to sea level (mine is between 15 and 16 gals/hr) Any info concerning experience with enriching the takeoff flow on the bendix style RSA-5AD1 servo (this setting is internal, I have found no reference material on the procedure)

Thanks

Tom
