* Special Note:*
Fuel requirements vary according to the immediate operating conditions 
of the engine, ie a richer mixture will be required when the engine is 
under load than is required at cruise or idle. The specific fuel 
requirements must be found by experimentation.

Turbo charged engines require a richer mixture to help reduce exhaust 
temperatures.   Leaning the mixture out too far may cause thermal damage 
to the Turbocharger.

Never argue with a dragon, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup.
