How about 150 degrees -C?  Can anyone give me typical egt temps for the
Franklin?  Mine run 450-500 C.  However recently the highest one crept
up to 520 at the end of a trip.  Now it runs about 600.  I know this
isn't too high, but why the change.  Does it mean anything?  Also when I
start the engine, this one egt goes to 680 in a few minutes while
taxiing.  The others are 250-300.  After takeoff it drops a little and
settles down around 600 at cruise.  With a carburetor, shouldn't the
egt's be all the same?
