Hi peeps, could someone give me a quick rundown on how to manage fuel for best range in piston props? How much throttle should I have and how much mixture? Does a prop lever play a role in that when it exists in the plane?

That depends on the specific plane, you’ll find the answer in the POH, they’ll have a cruise power setting table or graph
