FUEL SAVINGS PROCEDURES FOR NORMAL OPERATIONS
For best fuel economy during normal operations, the following
procedures are recommended.
1. After engine start and for all ground operations, set the
throttle to 1200 RPM and lean the mixture for maximum
RPM. After leaning, set the throttle to the appropriate RPM
I
for ground operations. Leave the mixture at this setting until
beginning the BEFORE TAKEOFF checklist. After the
BEFORE TAKEOFF checklist is complete re-lean the
mixture as described above until ready for TAKEOFF
checklist.
(
2. Lean the mixture for placarded fuel flows during maximum
continuous power climbs.

3.
Lean the mixture at any altitude for RECOMMENDED LEAN
or BEST ECONOMY fuel flows when using
80% or less
power.
NOTE
Using the above recommended procedures can
provide fuel savings in excess of
5% when
compared to typical training operations at full rich
mixture. In addition, the above procedures will
minimize spark plug fouling since the reduction in
fuel consumption results in a proportional reduction
in tetraethyl lead passing through the engine.
