Hi All
My IO320 D1A has a hot #3 cylinder. Gets over 400F on climb, at about 1000'AGL. Trying to eliminate things and want to do a fuel flow to ensure the injectors are not running lean. First I will pull the plugs and check them. What should I be looking for colour wise? Have 5.5 hours on it. A new engine from Vans. I have already removed the dam at the front of #1 cylinder as that was getting hot (cooler now) and added the washer behind #3 between the baffle and the head.
