Wish I did. I have an old analog 6 cylinder anaylzer.
If you want to protect your investment it would be HIGHLY recommended to get a good engine analyzer. I'll second that motion. It's a tiny percentage of what your engine just cost, and it provides invaluable data. Trip and I have the same engine, both in PA28-235s. In my experience, after observing my new engine with a JPI EDM-700 for several hundred hours, CHTs of over 400 degrees are WAY out of normal range. I keep mine below 350, and have no problem doing so. In cruise they will settle into the 315-320 range. EGTs can range from 1350 to 1500, depending on leaning. Now if you have only one cylinder out of line, it could be a sensor/probe problem, or it could be a baffling problem. I sealed all visible holes in my baffling with high-temp RTV, and saw my CHTs drop slightly, but noticeably.
