NOTE
It is generally recommended for a fast cruise , that the
propeller speed i s set at 2 4 0 0 RPM and that the manifold
pres sure is at least 0 . 7 inHg under the maximum
obtainable .
This
reduces
the
fuel
consumption
considerably whi l s t hardly affecting the cruising speed .
For an economical cruise it is recommended that the RPM
i s set between 2 3 0 0 and 2 2 0 0 and mani fold pressure 1 to
2 inHg under the maximum obtainable .
In order to keep engine wear at a minimum, permanent
revolutions under 1900 RPM are not recommended .
