Ah, yes I missed that with the confusion between the J3 and the PA11. Yes, with a Marvel carb on an O-200 normal leaning practices apply and can benefit operations greatly.
Just to play devil's advocate here a minute though, why not just run unleaded gas and do away with all the intense leaning routine so as to not lead foul the plugs? These little continentals run such low compression that 100LL is actually almost 3x the amount of lead of the fuel they were originally certified with which was 80LL. They run just fine on 90 octane unleaded and my C85 plugs don't show a bit of lead fouling or otherwise. Most small continentals have been run for ages with zero leaning and have made it far beyond TBO doing so.
I'm in 100% agreement with Crash on this point... I would have preferred to use non-ethanol MoGas if it were reasonably available around here... But none of the airports (within range) carried it (until the new Buccee's was built – well after I sold the Citabria). And even now, the cost of Buccee's 93-octane non-ethanol MoGas is higher than the 100LL sold at KSWI (Sherman, TX).
My airplane was a 1965 7ECA built by Champion, a couple of years before Bellanca purchased the type certificate and began building their own. The previous owner flew it off his back pasture, and used non-ethanol auto gas only, supplied from his personal "farm" tank supply. Unfortunately, that wasn't an option for me...
The plane actually came with the Petersen auto-fuel STC paperwork for the engine, although no 337 was ever filed with the FAA, nor is there a logbook entry to reflect the application of the STC. I asked my mechanic (IA) about it, and he said I would also need the EAA's airframe STC (cheap), but that he did not believe this specific airframe (7ECA) and engine (O-200) combination was covered in that STC. He could only find references to the later Bellanca and American Champion 7ECA powered by Lycoming 0-235s...
I could have followed up on that, but once I realized non-ethanol fuel wasn't available for purchase locally, it became a moot point.
Or as my daughter would say, "It became a moo point..." You know, like a cow, whose opinion on the subject just doesn't matter. It's "Moo." (Sorry - maybe too much coffee this morning!)
