I say RTFPOH and Engine Manufacturer's Recommendations as well.

But a rule of thumb is: Best Range - 50 degrees rich of peak
Best Endurance -25 lean of peak
I know it sounds a bit dodgy and backyardish but never had any complaints from the engineers using this for a coupla years flying Islanders and Shrikes for Coastwatch.

Safe flying, hoss
