PA24-260 Turbo excessive rich issue
by Ronald Cecchi » Mon Jul 07, 2014 6:12 pm
I appreciate this forum as a new owner. I have a new issue that I am looking for input on.
I am having problems where the running to rich at take off or early climb with the mixture full rich as recommended. Leaned out slightly I develop normal power, but at full mixture it can bog down a little. I am going to get the plane looked at this week, but I wanted some input in advance. Is there an adjustment to the overall range of mixture or am I more likely looking at fuel injector issue?
Thanks for any guidance as I like to get my facts in advance.
Ron

The maintenance manual is online under the Tech Tab and I'd suggest looking for some thoughts there.
I can tell you for the twin there are multiple places to adjust the mixture beyond the mixture control lever.
