Hi IGold,
I had this issue with my EGT's on my Dynon D-100. I put new EGT probes in, but
that didn't help. What made the difference was reloading the current program software.
Is everything else fairly steady.

I fly all the time with regular auto gas at 8,000 to 10,000 feet, and I
never have a problem. BUT I do have a fuel return to keep things moving,
and the fuel lines in in the engine compartment are fire sleeved.

Thanks for the advice Craig and Roger.
I did install the unit correctly and will switch wires per your advice
Craig's, if Roger's suggestion to about reloading the Dynon software doesn't
work.

Correction: the "heavy maintenance" manual says for the cylinder head
temperature sensors "On assembly, tighten the temperature sensor to 10 Nm
(90 in. lb). Secure screws with LOCTITE 221." Presumably the Loctite doesn't
interfere with the ground.
The manual says to use Loctite 243 for the oil temperature and pressure
sensors (section 79, 3.1.4).

Subject: RotaxEngines-List: Erratic CHT reading on Rotax 912
The forward left CHT value jumps all over the map on my Dynon 180 EMS and
generally reads lower than the right sensor. I replaced the CHT thermocouple
sensor on my Rotax 912S engine (80-hours TT) , and checked the wire
connections but the problem persists.
Has anyone resolved a similar problem on their Rotax 912?
Les
(PS: the CHT sensor is really pricy and I was not happy that the problem did
not go away after buying it.)
