manual mixture adjust kit 4 912
in 912 / 914 Technical Questions
13 years ago
Ran across this site / vendor selling kits that add manual mixture adjustment and automatic mixture adjustment kits for 912's.
In principle, and per their claim, if you can fine tune mixture for for optimal actual conditions you should get better performance, better fuel efficiency, etc.

They show on some engines on their site some documentation of improved fuel efficency, etc.
If their claims are even approximately true it would not take many hours for one of these kits to pay for itself in fuel savings.
Curious if anyone has, or knows of, any experiences with these kits, or comments/thoughts.
If I understand right owners of standard category aircraft with 912's probably could not legally use these kits, but us owners of experimental and amature builts could.
Any thoughts?
