Thanks.

It doesn’t seem to be related to altitude, RPM or MP-consumption is higher than it should at all combinations of the three variables. For example, The problem was evident on some recent flights at attitudes of 3000 to 11000 feet MSL, MP 20 to 25 or higher, 2300 to 2600 rpm. Percent power high 50s to 70 (I never lean Above 70% power). All fuels flows were above POH values. Engine data is not readily available-CHTs 320-360 or so, EGT around 1500. Engine data from EDI 700, without fuel flow or % power.

I have a 1996 201 J with an IO-360. I am consistently seeing average fuel flow rates in cruise (2 to 3.5 hour flights) of 12.5 to 13.9 GPH measured both on the FT-100 Fuel Totalizer and from tracking fuel added to tanks/flight time. I fly at best power 100 degrees (f) ROP setting but also get high than book burn rates at best economy 25 degrees (f) ROP. All engine indications are normal as is TAS. Can anyone give me an idea of where to start looking for the cause of the high burn rate.

Does anyone have one for sale or know someone who does?

Was just informed by Auto Pilots Central that my KAP 150, which just all of a sudden stopped working is not repairable. Does anyone know where I might find a KAP 150 Mod 3 to buy as a replacement fo mine?

I bought a pair (medium tint) at the last Sun n Fun. Great frames, lenses and tint. Excellent performance with Bose Headsets. Very happy with them. Jim

I would be happy to do so but I am based in Fort Lauderdale and my "J" is in the shop. If you can't find anyone in your area and want to make the trip over, please let me know and we can coordinate. Jim -
I stopped by the AKG booth for a demo and was similarly impressed with their product. Great fit, feel and sound.

Congrats and best of luck with the plane. I too am based at "W" Aviation @ FXE with a 1996 201 and look forward to running into you and helping each other with ownership issues.. Jim

Ram mount works great. I clamp the ram mount on the "yoke pole" in my 201 j with the mini between the yoke handles and it fits and works greet. Be sure to test while sitting in the pilots seat with the seat properly adjusted to rule out any restrictions to the flight controls.

Fluctuating oil pressure on a G1000.......
jsclafani replied to ScubaMan's topic in Modern Mooney Discussion
I experienced a similar problem in a Columbia 400 with an Avidyene MFD that drove me nuts. Everything tested ok but It turned out there was an intermittent short caused by a very small nick in the insulation in the transducer wiring going to the Avidyne MFD and analog gauge and the circuit shorted intermittently from engine vibration. -
Thanks for the input. Airspeed was my first thought but I need 70-80 KIAS just to maintain 300 FPM climb rate.

My 201 likes 6000 to 8000 feet MSL. The problem that I would like some input on is that In FL I like to fly as high as I can even if O2 is required to get above buildups that are around for a good portion of the year. The problem is that my 201 does not climb well above 8000 or 9000 feet; you can maybe get 300 FPM @ 70-80 KIAS with OATs in the 55-65 (f) range and to get more FPM, you have to really increase the AOA and lower airspeed even more which I don't like to do. I cant find a Service Ceiling in the POA and I know other 201 owners fly higher. Any thoughts?
