Rob,

One possibility of a cool cylinder and hot EGT is that one plug is not firing and thus some of the fuel is burning in the exhaust pipe.  That might be because of a bad ignition lead, bad or fouled plug or the "cigarette" vibrated loose (this happened to me in the middle of a flight).  The mag check should show this up.  Another possibility is a stuck valve?
