    I have had the EGTs reading different but probably not as fare apart as yours are.I swapped the probes around and they came right { read the same }I put this down to carbon build up on the probes ,this could be the result of a slight mixture difference in the carbs . This has happened at about 100 hour intervals on a 503 that works hard on a MK111c ----- Original Message ----- From: "n757jh" <n757jh@yahoo.com> Sent: Friday, November 27, 2009 6:17 AM Subject: RotaxEngines-List: Re: 582 egt mismatch > > I think I've ruled out carbs as a cause by swapping carb bodies and > replacing the inline fuel filters yesterday.

    Have you swapped sensors, front to back and vice versa to see if the sensors may be contributing to or the major cause of the differential? -------- Thom Riddle Buffalo, NY Kolb Slingshot SS-021 Jabiru 2200A #1574 Tennessee Prop 64x31 &quot;Rules are for the guidance of wise men and the obedience of fools.&quot; - Pablo Mason Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=275037#275037

    Joanne: Are both the plugs on the hotter cylinder much lighter than the plugs on the cooler cylinder? Since the carbs are set up to make the engine run much richer at the idle the best thing to do is to have a look at the plugs with as little idling as possible after a flight.

    Better than plugs, although a bit more work, drop the exhaust and look in the Y pipe and the tops of the pistons for a major difference in appearance.
