My EDM is old. Can I still do a Lean of Peak lean find?

August 17, 2012 by Craig Peyton

Pre-lean to a point where you are well beyond the peak EGT on the lean side by using fuel flow as a reference (THE BIG PULL). Next go into lean-find mode and enrich the mixture until the first cylinder peaks while also making sure that the temperatures of the other cylinders are also climbing. At this point you will know that each cylinder is on the lean side with the richest cylinder being at the peak EGT and can lean out the mixture further if appropriate.

* Airframe-STC and or engine manufacturer leaning recommendations for your aircraft must be followed.  It is your responsibility to use the airframe and engine manufacturer’s recommendations.
