1969+ M20F speeds

You’re plane is definitely on the slow side for any 200hp Mooney.  Could be a number of factors contributing has the ignition timing been verified? If the data plate is stamped 20° you’re already at a disadvantage because the POH performance numbers were derived when the planes were spec’d to 25°. If the tech installing the mags was the slightest bit apathetic about precision you could be flying an engine that’s  

25 degrees. I’d have to check the data plate but it’s an IO-360-C1C converted to an A1A, and IIRC it has the 25 degree timing stamped.

If the owner cared about $92 he’d figure out how to change a bulb.

Flying a 75'F with fixed steps, no mods, 2 blade, a repaired belly landing and too much antennas...

 

I usually plan at 9500 ft, 2500 RPM, WOT. This usually turns out to be 138 kts TAS (ROP, 10 gph) or 134 kts TAS (LOP, 9 gph).

 

I can go to 150 kts TAS, but that requires WOT and high FF at altitudes below 3000 ft.
