We had the smallest amount of carbon in one restrictor and another one had white fuzzy stuff. All the restrictors were cleaned in an ultra-sonic cleaner. I didn’t see the process as it was done by a friend in their industrial unit. I do see some units on eBay for cheap but have no idea if they are appropriate. Regardless the end result was more consistent fuel flow.

You bring up a good point Don that I don't know the answer to. How does one clean the injectors and how often should this be done?
Thanks,
Marcus

Just an FYI....Although my experience may be different than some, what I can tell you is that there sure seem to be a few variables out there.... altitude, MP, RPM, wind direction, BP, and maybe most important, how long it's been since your last injector cleaning. When the previously mentioned change, the LOP numbers may also change.

Okay, I've got dyslexia. I should have said my worst two outliers peak first, not last.
So again, why does AFP prefer to go smaller on four rather than larger on two? Is there any concern with not reducing fuel flow at full power?

Bob;
I went up .0285 on one cylinder, because.. well, Don McDonald told me to,
and that’s all he had sitting around that I could use for testing!! Been
working fine for me. All mine lean within .5 GPH or less now. Good enough
for me. (about 10gph at 65% and 7.5K)
