Hi

I didn't quite get the meaning of this part "lean of peak range where fuel flow translates directly into power output".

If the temperature of the air decreases, doesn't mass flow of air through the carburator increase? As it does, fuel flow would also increase, which would cause a slight power output increase, indicated by a MAP increase?

I know this may sound odd, but I can't get my head around it and I'll soon tell why
