Timing

[rwarre]

Have been having high CHT temperature on a couple of cylinders for most of the summer. While talking to a AP and rv owner, it was suggested to check timing first. Sure enough both mags were adjusted slow or had gotten slow and were causing the problem. I plan on checking the timing at oil changes or at least every other one.

"Slow"? Advanced timing (e.g., 30 deg BTDC instead of 25) will usually cause higher CHTs.

You are correct the timing was at least 30 btc or more.

I wonder what has caused the timing to change by five degrees? Time to open up those magnificent mags.
