So the ITT and the fuel flow are slightly elevated in the affected engine but not drastically so. I don't think it's a faulty sensor b/c it modulates normally with thrust changes and if it was reading incorrectly I would think that it would show an overtemp during icing encounters which it doesn't.
A stuck 14th stage valve sounds likely. That would mean that the engine probably isn't achieving its rated thrust during landing and potential go-around, yes?
I was also thinking it could be either a pre-cooler problem which is no big deal until it fails and you're single bleed in icing conditions. Or it could be a small leak near the sensor?
