Default Re: exhaust temp issue ???

I don't know what the average operating temps should be, but I do know that #5 is at the rear of the block, and older engines tend to have hotter cylinders at the rear of the block as water circulation is cut way down by scale and rust building up over the years. How long since the engine was apart for a block boil out, or at the least a heavy duty flush of the cooling system?
