You are flying a Helio Courier powered by a Lycoming GSO-480-1B engine which is capable of producing 340 horsepower at 3400 RPM. You are in a "go-around" power configuration at 100% power. At that power setting, the supercharged engine runs at 115% volumetric efficiency. Your settings are 3400 RPM at 37 inches-hg manifold pressure. Your mixture control is set to full-rich for a best power setting of 12.6:1 air/fuel ration? Your altitude is 10,000 feet, but the density of air entering the engine should be essentially a sea level density due to the supercharging. Calculate the fuel flow in gallons per hour.
