PT20J Posted April 4, 2019 Report Posted April 4, 2019 For all you LOP fans, I dug this out of the archives. It's from the POH for a Piper Warrior powered by a Lycoming carburetored O-320 with a fixed-pitch prop. Turns out the mixture distribution was so even that it would run LOP and they put the procedure in the manual. And you thought all this stuff was new. 1

No EGT being mentioned, the rpm of the fixed pitch prop gets used in its place... rpm rise similar to a Mooney’s shutdown procedure... Thanks for sharing that doc, Skip. Best regards, -a-
