Gang,
This weekend while cruising home from an FFI practice, I watched my #1 cylinder?s EGT climb to about 40-50 degrees warmer than the other 3. Simultaneously, the #1 CHT cooled to about 40-50 degrees cooler than the other 3 cylinders.
Jarhead postulated two theories, either of which would make that cylinder run leaner than the others:
1) a possible piece of schmutz in the #1 injection nozzle.
2) a possible air leak in the #1 induction.
I?m unable to return to the hangar for all this week, so I figured I?d hit up the VAF brain trust for theories and pointers to arm my trouble-shooting efforts next week. Thoughts?
