Default RE: Tuning is doing my head in

In the old days we would fly it around at full throttle in forward flight then quickly land and put some spit on the head. if it sizzled and evaporated it was too lean, if it bubbled it was good, and if it just sat there it was too rich, with the IR temp gun you are doing the same thing, above 220°F is lean, 200-220 is good, below 200 is rich....
