I had a fouled lower plug on my 0-360 as diagnosed during rough runup by looking at my JPI 830. A&P cleaned and gapped plug and reinstalled. I now notice that my #3 CHT is running 15-20 degrees hotter on climb out than all previous history. Anything I should be looking for?

Plug was probably fouled by someone else who flew the plane and didn't lean aggressively as I instructed on the ground or stay lean in descent. :(
