I can not figure out why one cylinder is always running colder then the others. 200- 300 degrees colder. took injectors out and cleaned them. put them back in defferent cylinders. new plugs, plug wires, cap and rotor, and still colder then the others. any ideas why?

The butterfly on that cylinder may be open more than the others...with the engine off measure the throttle blades as they are (at idle) and you might find that one cylinder is open a little more, letting more air/fuel in than the others, which would make the cylinder cooler.
The older I get, the faster I used to be.

That butterfly is closed more than the others not allowwing enough air, also creates more vacuum and it draws in more fuel, people think i am goffy when i take an injector line off with the motor running
