Up for it........sure if you pay me to waste my time on you.
C'mon, Jabba, just imagine how comforting it would be to diagnose the cause of engine problems by the mere laying on of hands.

You see, if you've changed a thousand cookd clys, it stands to reason that you will know what caused them to be cookd. No need for no steeeeekin' EGT, CHT, fuel flow, RPM or other data.

If the pilots would just lean it to 25 degrees ROP in the cruise, using that steam driven single point EGT gauge, in accordance with the POH, nothing could possibly go wrong. That's because all those clys are operating at the same point on the EGT curve, at that oh-so-cool ROP setting.

Overheated magneto coil? Just swap the magneto! Once you've swapped a thousand magnetos, you'll know what causes the coils to overheat!
