Hi Jon -

Setting up the fuel system is not an uncomplicated task. You need the  
right equipment (eg. two calibrated, damped gauges) and a lot of other  
information. I would strongly recommend that you get an A&P who knows the  
continental big bore engines and has a lot of experience with them. A  
Bonanza shop would have one or more. Barring that, make sure you down load  
the SID97-3E from the Continental website and study it carefully. I  
believe we had a IV go in right after takeoff because of an overly rich  
mixture.

Cheers,

John Schroeder
