Fuel Burn

Hey guys, can anyone tell me the fuel burn rate of a C-90? On a PA-11 I have always thought that it was 4.4 gal/hr but I could be wrong. Any thoughts, Thanks in advance.
 
My experience has been between 5-6 gph with a Stromberg carb with no mixture control. However, I have not kept good records in that regard. I fly an L18C with 2 18 gallon tanks. It can last longer than I.

Talked to a buddy of mine that keeps better records than I. He said with a Marvel Schebler carb leaned he burns as little as 4.5 gph and not leaning, running pretty hard as much as 6.25 gph.
