It was also running rough on the Right and I noticed the EGT's for #1 and #2 were much colder (Maybe 250F to 300F) than #3 and #4 (maybe a red herring).
All other engine parameters were normal (oil temp was about 130F to 135F). The engine/airplane has about 80 total hours on it and I did an oil change 2 weeks ago (oil analysis was fine).
Hmm.... It's been running fine up until now (it's been at least 20 degrees warmer until now). Maybe some plugs are fouled? Extra cold air revealed the issue? I'll pull the plugs this weekend and see what's what.
It was beautiful this morning at 6B6... Too bad we didn't fly.
Screengrab from a Rotax-Owner.com video on installing plugs. Not much thermal paste should be applied.
