I had an injector that would stick open
(didn't know for certain that was the problem at the time) while I was flying
and cause the EGT on that rotor to decrease 300F. It was
intermittent

Thanks Ed. That makes me feel better about tearing my
engine apart tomorrow to change these. Hopefully, I can get to them
without taking too much stuff out, but I have my doubts. In fact, I just
threw all my good metric wrenches and sockets in the RX-7 because I'm
afraid I'll need more than the crappy tools at the
hanger.
I thought about cutting into the wires for the
injectors, and swapping them around enough to figure out which injector was
actually the problem. I finally decided that it didn't matter, since I was
going to install new ones anyway. I can't recall if I mentioned it before,
but the new injectors were (only) $166 each at Mazdaformance, so it wasn't as
painful as I imagined.
Stay tuned (so to speak).
Rusty
