2.3 MANIFOLD PRESSURE OPERATION
The manifold
pressure
system
provides
both a full sweep
graphic
analog
display and three
place
digitaldisplay.
The full sweep
graphic
display resolution is 1" lN.
HG. The full color
range marks
provide you
with a
quick
reference to
manifold
pressure
when making fast
power
changes.
The digital readout
provides
you
with
precise
manifold
pressure
information. The
resolution
(or
incremental steps) of the digital
display is 0.1
lN. HG.
This allows very
precise power
settings to be
achieved.
You
can,
for
example, in stabilized
conditions,
watch for small
changes in
pressure
that can indicate throttle
creep or
induction
problems.
The effectiveness of carb heat
can also
be determined by
noting the
pressure
differences'before and
aftef
heat is applied.
For new induction system designs,
or
modifications lo existing
\-/
designs,
this
repeatability
is extremely valuable to
judge
the
performance
of the design or design
changes.
A warning alert
activates
whenever the engines redline is reached.
The
display will flash
untilthis condition is
rectified.
