Default Re: one cylinder running colder than the rest.....

Thanks for all of the replies; the car runs fine I just wanted to make sure this wasn't something I should address right away.
For those that asked; it has the stock cast iron intake and Quadrajet carb.
The plugs have just been changed but, I am not so sure about the wires or distributor cap.

Usually if a motor is running cooler on a cylinder it is fat I.E. blow by or to much fuel. I would still do a leakdown better safe then sorry but I agree 100 degree temp is not alarming. On a bbc it is hard to tune each specific cylinder eqaully. 8-5 are the most difficult.
