Pinging the collective wisdom of the r.a.o folks on a couple of
maintenance issues: 1) Our engine monitor (JPI EDM-700) sometimes indicates sporadic EGT values for #1 cylinder. It behaves like a sensor or connection issue as the engine runs fine and the fuel burn is within expected values. #1 CHT value dances up and down fairly rapidly +/- 25 degrees or so of the value as compared to the other cylinders. The value changes fairly rapidly (much more so than with the other cylinders). The problem has come and gone consistent with some sort of wiring issue. Anyone seen a similar problem? Engine is IO-360. 2) Right brake pedal travel is noticeably more than the left. Stopping power of both brakes is fine and the fluid level is only slightly down from the full line. Applying the parking brake while rolling causes the plane to slightly turn left, consistent with the left brake applying ahead of the right. No hydraulic leaks anywhere that I can see. Could it be air in the system that needs to be bled? I'm familiar with this in cars and have done my share of bleeding brakes and hydraulic clutches. The airplane domain is new though.
