Engine Operation
4. At cruise altitude:
NOTE: Best power mixture setting is 100°-150°F rich of peak exhaust
gas temperature. Adjust engine controls or aircraft attitude to maintain
indicated engine operation within specifications.
a. Maintain level flight cruise at 75% power with best power or richer mixture for
the first hour of operation.
b. For the second and subsequent hours of flight, alternate cruise power settings
between 65% and 75% power with appropriate best power mixture settings.
WARNING
Avoid long descents at high engine RPM to prevent undesirable
engine cooling. If power must be reduced for long periods,
adjust the angle of descent to obtain desired performance
levels. If outside air temperature is extremely cold, it may be
desirable to increase drag to maintain engine power without
gaining excess airspeed. Do not permit cylinder head
temperature to drop below 300°F (149°C).
5. Descend at low power cruise settings. Avoid long descents with engine speed below
1500 RPM. Carefully monitor engine instrumentation to maintain levels above the
minimum specified cylinder head temperature and oil temperature.
4-2.3.2. Flight Check
1. Conduct a normal engine start, ground run-up and take-off according to the AFM/
POH.
2. Monitor the following engine instrument panel indications: a) engine RPM, b) fuel
flow, c) oil pressure and temperature, d) cylinder head temperature and e) exhaust
gas temperature.
3. If the engine fails to reach the rated full throttle RPM during ground operations,
ascend to cruise altitude (>2000' above field elevation) and verify the engine
achieves full throttle, full rich, rated RPM at cruise altitude and operates within the
limits specified in Section 2-4; If full power, rated RPM is achieved, proceed to step
4. If the aircraft indicated values fail to meet the published limits, repeat the Engine
Operational Check and Flight Check.
WARNING
All abnormal conditions must be corrected prior to releasing
the aircraft for normal operation.
4. Release the engine to normal service.
