Based on the converstaions here,I drove over to Corona, CA (Aircraft Spruce) this afternoon and purchased the Micro 1000 CHT, a sensor and a 15 foot extension cable. It's all installed and looks great in my original center console.
So where is the danger point? Some posts say that hitting 400 degrees will cause a valve seat to fail. Others say they regularly see 375 to 400 degrees on their longer, higher speed drives. Where is the point that indicated engine heat danger? BTW: 74 2.0L all original FI w, standard exhaust. My thanks. Eric Read NOTE: Please note that this was originally posted in a CHT topic post. After about a day, I received no responses, so I am re-posting it as a unique topic.
