re turbos

Paul

Appears you have a problem that is not normal.

1) You should check fuel flow and make sure you are in the correct range of approx 140 lbs /hr or about 24 gph. This should occur at full throttle.

2) There is a barometric fuel control that compensates for altitude. This could be out of adjustment or not working properly.

3) You should get the engines checked on the ground with a proper fuel flow meter and make sure the controller is set up properly. You should be able to take off with full throttle at any altitude and still maintain 37 inches of manifold pressure.

Last thing you want is to "nurse" an engine on takeoff... more important things to do such as flying the aircraft.

fyi

Bob
