I've heard things that if your mixture is too rich, you won't get a lot of power and your engine will spit out fuel from exhaust.
If you put a lean mixture, you will waste less fuel but your engine might overheat and receive damage.
What mixture ratio if most efficient in terms of fuel economy without harming the engine?

I realize that 14.7 is the most effective one in terms of power+efficiency, but I'm talking just about the efficiency. I don't mind my vehicle being slower.

exactly 14.7 air to one fuel mixture. No richer than 11 to one and no leaner than 17 to one...

About 14.7 pounds of air to each pound of gasoline
