Default New EGT probe reading hotter
I just replaced one EGT probe & it's reading about 25 degrees hotter than the others. Is this common until they they get carboned up? Or could the others be misreading due to age?
Previously, all my temps were balanced.
I wouldn't have noticed it if I had replaced them all.

There is a thread on the Dynon site suggesting that it is normal due to the new probe being clean while the others have build-up on them.
