Engine temps
I was checking some engine temps with an IR gun and found some weird temps The 1-2-3 side runs 500F about 2" down from the heads The other side gets weird.. 6 = 350F 4-5 = 175F What would cause the difference and the really low temps? Engine is a 2.2 with webers |

I would pull all the plugs and take a look, #6 is a bit rich and #4 and #5 are real rich I bet. They could be misfiring but then the engine would idle pretty rough. You could also take a sync meter and check each intake to see if the flows are even in all six intakes and I would guess they are not. The temps at idle will tell the idle mixture but what I would like to know is what are they at wide open throttle at about 7K RPM, that is where the bad things can happen! When they took my new 2.7L race engine to the dyno they put pyrometers on all six exhaust outlets and temps were within 5 degrees each at 6800 which means all the barrels are getting the right mixture.
