High EGT
in 912 / 914 Technical Questions
8 years ago
Hello guys
I have a 912 UL, and it's been running great. Good power, temps on analogue guages within limits.
I installed a grand rapids EIS 4000 with fuel flow,2 cht, 4 EGT ,oil temp , RPM, etc.
EGT probes are about 3 inches from the cylinder after a bend.
I set all the warnings on the EIS roughly, and everything seems to work well, within my expectations.
The issue is I get egt warning at 2460 rpm, 1421 rpm.
Left rear warmest cyc, 40 degrees max diff at this power setting. I didn't want to go beyond this RPM due high EGT.. that said it's been running great at Max RPM during the last 30 hours.
This engine is 250 hours old, to which I have only been the owner for 30 of these hours.
It makes good power, runs smoothly with great performance... Not a single symptom that would lead me to think it's running lean.
Look forward to your opinions..
Best
