Line Up and Wait
I have been told that a 172 should burn about 8GPH. I seem to be getting better. As an example today I flew 1.2 hours on the hobbs, I topped off the tanks fuller than when started and still only took 7.7 Gal. I Have only flown club 172's for a few months now, but I have noticed before that used less than 8 GPH almost every time. I lean with an EGT, but as a motorhead I can also lean by sound/feel to about the same %. DaveR
