My two cents worth!
For what its worth, I generally look to the POH for advice on power settings. If I want to just stooge around slowly, I also tend to wind the RPM back (cause I like to have a quiet life) toward the bottom end of the RPM green arc and then set the MP I need to maintain the target speed (eg 2100/18" with 10-20o flap).
