There are a bunch of lean of peak videos on you tube, I have watched a bunch and read alot.
I don't do it the way I was taught in flight training circa 1992 any more. That was too rich too often. I am full rich for only the take off and initial climb out nowadays. I don't taxi rich either. I will go full rich to very lean for start up, whatever that motor wants for a quick start depending on conditions which of course varies motor to motor day to day, etc.. But once running, not full rich. (well, ok if I find some reason to do a full power climb mid route maybe full rich then too. You know: when there is "suddenly" a mountain ahead, like who could plan for that? Well, oddly seaplanes do a lot of work in narrow volcanic mountain valleys with steep sidewalls.. Ok I am pretty much full rich all the time doing water work inside mountain valleys with lakes in the bottom. But going there and coming home lean of peak is where I am at and with a low power cruise I log more hours for cheaper and low cht's). jg
