582 running hot

[Olle1975]

Hi!

I set the mixture to 70% water and 30% antifreeze - I have protect water up to -20 Celsius by this mixture.

582 greyhead with GSC 68"
At hot temperature 6300 rpm during climb with 1000 ft/min.
At cold weather 6000 rpm.

NOTICE: more prop pitch higher altitude, more airtemp - less EGT!!!

IDLE JET: 1/2 turn left less EGT (richer) than 2 turns left !!!

Regards!

Olaf

You may want to check the water pump impeller sometimes they get to much wear and will not push /pull coolant just something to review ?
