I sure could use some help trying to figure out my engine issue.
I have installed on my TMX-0360 a LSE Plasma II+ on
my right and a mag on the left.
I currently have 211 hours with this set up. Note all four cylinders were replaced 93 hours ago. ECI recall) Recently at mag check I noticed a drop of 60 rpm when it has only dropped 20 RPM every time prior. The engine seemed to be smooth during this run up. As I taxied to take off I noticed that the egt temp on my # 3 cylinder was much lower than the other three cylinders 1,2,4 were 950 #3 550. When I applied power to check the mags again all EGT temps were about the same.
I checked the compression and it is fine.
I changed the plug, no difference. Put a new plug in and no difference.
Made sure wires are all snugged
I then restarted did the mag check with same non normal results. I did circle around the airport at 60%. CHTs were normal and EGTs were normal. Came in and landed and I noticed on roll out with throttle pulled all the way back the #3 EGT had fallen much lower in reference to the others. The engine was running rough as I taxied back on low power.
Got any ideas?
