31
Q

Visual of Overpriming or Flooding

A

Weak intermittent firing followed by puffs of black smoke from the exhaust stack

32

A

Indication of faulty grounding of one side of the ignition system

40
Q

Alternator Check

A

3-5 second of landing lights, or operating wing flaps during engine run up (1700 RPM). Ammeter will stay within a needles width of initial position if alternator is working correctly

41
Q

Normal Climb

A

Flaps up, Full Throttle, 5-10 Knots Higher than best rate-of-climb speeds for best combination of performance, visibility, and engine cooling.

42
Q

Mixture Leaning Altitudes

A

Full rich below 3000 feet. Leaned above 3000 feet for smoother operation or to obtain maximum RPM.

43
Q

Leaning Mixture Procedures

A

Lean the mixture until Engine RPM peaks and drops 25-50 RPM. Then increase 3 full spins back.

44
Q
