Gerard -

Have you attended or taken the on-line course: Advanced Pilot Seminar? It  
is the bible, IMHO, for running an engine lean of peak. A couple of  
questions: Did you ever run a GAMI Lean Check? Based on that did you  
install GAMIjectors if the test and the folks at GAMI advised to do so? It  
may be that the mixture for numbers one and three were in fact running  
very close to peak egt because of the mixture imbalances between the  
cylinders. What were your CHT's? You may want to download the data from  
the EDM 700 and have it analyzed.

Hope this helps you in the future.
