Any suggestions or comments?

Do you have an engine analyzer on board, Doug?

If so, this tool (we have the JPI EDM-700) lets you lean with
confidence that you're not harming anything...


I do--the Insight GEM 602. I'm doing my best to integrate that
information (I'm new to this instrument), too. My question is less about
"harming" the engine from over-leaning than it is about achieving max
power for takeoff & landing (i.e., potential go-around).

The harm would come from too high a CHT, particularly over an extended
period.

I assume the GEM provides CHT temps?

Of course, failing to achieve that power could result in harming the whole
airframe, eh...?

Well, yes...if the engine caught fire. :~(
