Remember, the fuel flow indicator is based on pressure not flow. Without the EGT to verify the setting, there may be a pressure issue.

Scotty,

Did your fuel flow indicate the same value for both engines? I agree with Gord that the mixture lever position is not the best indicatoin of fuel flow.

The way I run the engines I would have burned just shy of 100 gallons in 5 hours and with 128 gallon tanks that only leaves about 15 gallons per engine. Yikes!
