Generally speaking, when making power changes in the cruise once leaned,
do
you just adjust your throttle and/or RPM and THEN adjust mixture? I
imagine
you wouldn't push mixture to full rich before making power changes at
altitude. Is this the case?

Further question: when going from, say, 24 inches and 2500 RPM leaned to
21
inches and 2500 RPM, would you generally need to adjust mixture at all?

Thanks in advance.

Do you have an EGT? Try making the changes and see if you are still running
the same degrees rich or lean of peak - whatever your engine requires.
