Check for an air leak at the boots. Unfortunately your crank seals may 
have dried and allow air to pass. There's a way to check but I don't 
remember it. I think there's a spec for crankcase vacuum or manifold 
vacuum that might tell you something about leakage.

when we parked it and now both EGT's are trending high, right up to 1200 on
takeoff and over 900 at 3000rpm. Never saw them so high before. Rebuilt fuel
pump, checked carb floats, new fuel lines and filter, fresh gas and swapped egg
gauge with no changes. Any ideas what would cause both to be so high all of
a sudden?
