Hi Guys,
Today, While cruising at 5500' and 5000rpm, the EGT was reading around 1675.   Then about two hours into the flight, there was a slight loss of power to around 4800rpm, but the EGT shot up to 1800 where I have the limit light set.  I had the mixture set with 0-1 bar showing in the mixture meter.  To lower the EGT, I made the mixture richer to 5-6 bars. and the temp came down but stayed around 1750 for the rest of the day.   Any guesses?
Thanks in advance!

Did you wire up your EC2 so you have switches that can disable pri./sec.  injectors and the coil test switch?  I find them great for debugging these things on the ground, I think I'd like to have a airport in sight before I'd start running too many diagnostics in flight though.  Do you have just one EGT or did they both move higher?
