Hi
I have a newly rebuilt 0300-D.
It is running hot - at OAT 93F, 2 cylinders are exceeding 400F on
climbout and oil exceeds 200F.

All suggestions highly appreciated.


recheck baffling

check oil temp probe for accuracy

check CHT probes for accuracy (all of them)

Is 400F a temp redline or isn't it 500F? For my Lycoming O-320,
the manual discusses having cruise CHT temps at or below 400F,
with 500F redline.

btw - EGT spreads aren't meaningful (the EI engine monitor
manual should have some discussion of this).

Have you talked to anyone at the shop that rebuilt the engine?
