Awesome. Thx! Would have time for a quick conversation by phone? 512-820-6612

Seems like mine are about that when closed. I can never come close to closing them in flight

Sounds like a plan. I don’t remember seeing the intercylinder baffles but not sure what they look like. We’ll look at those as well

Hmmm. I’ve had two people tell me it could so I’m not sure what to attack.

Also, I’m curious as to how much of a potential problem having an exhaust slip joint directly above that CHT probe that’s pumping out 1500 degree heat would cause the CHT to rise more than cylinders without it.

34/2400 in climb 30/2300 in cruise

I’ve been talking with the previous owner as well and he said #2 was always hotter but not that bad. I’ll see if I can figure out that baffling test as well. Thx!

Oh I gotcha. Thanks!

I’ve also heard about swapping the probe but most of the threads is see say that high CHT is not normally the probe. But I’ll put a new one in just in case.

That’s a typo. He’s I have a Bravo. Baffling has all been changed.l and in great shape

Not sure how to do that?? But I’m gonna start with replacing the probe. That builder also has about 800 hours on it so not ruling out a worn cylinder.

I’m going to put a new probe in and check it. Will also try and put some fire shielding around it to protect it from the potential blow by from the exhaust slip joint above it.

Cruise. Even hotter in climb.

Mine is a Bravo and it’s 50 degrees hotter than the next hottest. So almost 80-90 warmer than the coolest.

Yea, but I can’t keep the temps under 400 very easily. Otherwise it wouldn’t be a problem.
