Give the mechanic that assembled it a ton of s***! He/she deserves it.

Thank you everybody for your help. At least i learned a lot from my reading on this troubleshooting. Just a little bit disappointed that i received a normal report from Savvy sending my engine data and telling exactly when happened the problem with the EGT going down.
I don't find much value in oil analysis or EGT/CHT log analysis other than to get you which cylinder is acting up.

I've seen oil analysis that came back great while the filter was full of shavings...same sort of deal.

Bob

Is it not the case to use all the information available to help monitor the health of an engine?

If a metal particle is not large enough to be caught by the filter and visible to the naked eye its not worth worrying about.
