hmmm, that makes a lot of sense, if i were to lean it out a little bit, how do i know if im too lean and hurting the engine?

well this time of year you will have a hard time getting temps but just make sure your checking it and that your not going over. always be sure your getting good smoke not only on take off but a decent amount through the power band.
