"Do you have a way to monitor your Gallons Per Hour? If so do you know

 what your putting through on take off? I see about 15 gph on take off

 climb. I did slightly enlarge my jet but did not want to go too far."



Rule of thumb applies here: 1 gal for every 10HP (at) sea level (at) full RPM (at) std temp. If you have a 150HP engine, 15GPH is about right. Look for 18 on a 360 engine.

 

Another check is to see if you can get 250 ROP at full rated power. If not, make the appropriate changes.



I suspect more than a few cooling issues are actually fuel related.



Carry on!
