Subject: #1 Cylinder running hot

My #1 cylinder has been running 30=B0F hotter than #'s 2,3 & 4.

Scott Krueger suggested that my #1 CHT probe might be too close to the=20=

exhaust pipe. I thought that made since and before I started building=20
my #1 cylinder wing to get more air around the cylinder, I promised=20
Scott that I would look at the probe's position.

I discovered that the hose clamp that holds the heat shroud for the=20
carb & cabin heat was loose and that my #1 probe was very close to the=20=

heat shroud.

I took a 1" square piece of asbestos exhaust pipe wrap, placed it=20
between the heat shroud and the hose clamp. I then placed some red=20
silicon between the CHT probe and the hose clamp.

When I flew today, the #1 CHT was 30=B0F cooler and now matched the =
CHT's=20
of my # 2,3 & 4 cylinders. Scott sure saved me a lot of cooling work.

Thanks Scott!
