Narrative:
Normal engine start and after start flows were completed. Aircraft parking is very tight due to limited space on ramp. While taxiing out of gate to red line, point at which ground control is contacted for taxi, all attention must be given to marshallers for wingtip and tail clearance of other aircraft. After calling for taxi first officer called my attention to the right engines egt which had exceeded limits and was still increasing in temperature. Engine was shut down using the condition lever. Aircraft was inspected by maintenance and engine run was performed. Released for ferry flight to maintenance base for engine removal and inspection. I believe the (iec) integrated engine control malfunctioned and did not let the (ttl) torque temperature limiter control the egt.

Title: FLC OF AN LTT SHUT DOWN 1 ENG DURING TAXI OUT DUE TO ENG EXHAUST GAS TEMP LIMITS WERE EXCEEDED (EGT).
Narrative: NORMAL ENG START AND AFTER START FLOWS WERE COMPLETED. ACFT PARKING IS VERY TIGHT DUE TO LIMITED SPACE ON RAMP. WHILE TAXIING OUT OF GATE TO RED LINE, POINT AT WHICH GND CTL IS CONTACTED FOR TAXI, ALL ATTN MUST BE GIVEN TO MARSHALLERS FOR WINGTIP AND TAIL CLRNC OF OTHER ACFT. AFTER CALLING FOR TAXI FO CALLED MY ATTN TO THE R ENGS EGT WHICH HAD EXCEEDED LIMITS AND WAS STILL INCREASING IN TEMP. ENG WAS SHUT DOWN USING THE CONDITION LEVER. ACFT WAS INSPECTED BY MAINT AND ENG RUN WAS PERFORMED. RELEASED FOR FERRY FLT TO MAINT BASE FOR ENG REMOVAL AND INSPECTION. I BELIEVE THE (IEC) INTEGRATED ENG CTL MALFUNCTIONED AND DID NOT LET THE (TTL) TORQUE TEMP LIMITER CTL THE EGT.
