Today I had what appears to be a run away CHT on climb out. After a quick reduction in MAP and max fuel flow I limped around the pattern to return. Both the run up before and after the incident showed no problems.
First step in troubleshooting, where was the human last... well, I had just remounted CHT probes #2 and #4.
I'll borescope and pull the plugs tomorrow but given the quick astronomical CHT reading is there a chance this is a probe failure?
