Operations

Suggested setup:

Standard view

Automatic mode

Verify:

EGTs and CHTs consistent with past climbs. EGTs
should be in the 1100 to 1300°F range (100° to 300°F
cooler than cruise) due to fuel cooling.

Be alert for:

high EGT in one cylinder, 300°F above the others may
indicate plugged injector or leaking manifold gasket on
a carbureted engine. At high density altitude an overly
rich mixture can significantly reduce engine power.

If all EGT columns go off scale to the top of the
column, be sure you are not in Normalize view, as
indicated by the symbol NRM above the Scanner®
section.

Cruise

After the engine is warmed up, use LeanFind to lean the
mixture.

Suggested setup:

Normalize view

Automatic mode

Be alert for:

uneven EGTs (injected engines). Make fine
adjustments to throttle, then RPM, then mixture to
level the display columns.

abnormal patterns of EGTs and CHT. (see Engine
Diagnosis Chart
on page 10).

Descent

Suggested setup:

Standard view

Manual mode

Be alert for:

CLD: shock cooling alarm is set to -60°F. Average
cool rates of -40°F/minute to -50°F/minute are normal,
