I have my rear EGT creeping over 1200 with just the slightest adjustment
in throttle.
Now that the temp outside is so much cooler (60 F) i'm thinking at 2000
ft ASL i may need to adjust the clips?
Front cylinder is not far behind! Within 50-100 degrees.
Whats SOP on this?

Jareds,
I run my 582 at the 3rd notch on stock needles spring till fall. Once temps get to freezing area I will lower clip to bottom notch.
Member , your EGT reading is just a indication of what is going on in exhaust but your plugs will tell the true tale. EGts are great and usefull but not necessary calibrated all the same.

Hey Shorty:
I'd even go as far to say if you have a properly calibrated EGT then you
aren't flying a two stroke Rotax. Either that or you have a piece of the
blarney stone shoved in a rather personal location. They are most useful
for following trends and I wouldn't fly without it.

Wind and rain this morning eech!
