Hi Giff,

For my rotary, which has higher EGT's than your typical ICE, I used a propane torch directly on the EGT probes. You can reference the chart below for exact temps of the various gasses.

The flame temperatures for some common fuel gases can be found in the table below:

Fuel Gas	Combustion with Oxygen (^oC)	Combustion with Air (^oC)
Acetylene	3,100	2,400
Butane		1,970
Carbon Monoxide		2,121
Ethane		1,960
Hydrogen	2,660	2,045
MAPP¹⁾	2,980
Methane	2,810	1,957
Natural Gas	2,770
Propane	2,820	1,980
Propane Butane Mix		1,970
Propylene	2,870

How do you verify your EGT Calibration when setting up your system? Mine seem to be running very high and do not match what was recorded during my engine cell runs.
