I am using an MGL Stratomaster engine monitor set up for the 912 S. I am receiving Oil Temps of 150 to 180 F and the worst of the two EGT's are around 800 to 1000 but the CHT's are quickly going over the limits. 280 to 320 degrees. Anyone out there trying the MGL monitor and did it work with the stock 912-S CHT probes? I think I may have to change the probes. Jeff R. A258 / Gold Rush. Trimming seat foam and testing the engine.

After 5 years and 400 hours I suppose this shouldn't have come as a surprise. It's time to replace them. I recall reading on the forum a couple of years back, that there was a Cessna engine rubber mount which Europa builders were using very satisfactorily. If this is true, I can obtain the Cessna part much quicker (and probably cheaper) than I can from the UK. Does anyone remember this thread and if so can you point me to the Cessna part number?

Yes we had it tied down and we ran it at idle then up to about 4000 RPM's until I didn't like the temps I saw. > r u using the waterless coolant? Yes I am using the waterless coolant.
