I am working on a mid 74 (Dec) and came across this head temp sensor modification. I think I remember reading something about this set up but I have never seen one before in 25 years of playing with 914's. It is a hollow bolt with the temp sensor screwed into a engine tin screw hole next to the #4 cylinder. The temp sensor is 0280130003 and has 450 stamped on the side. The temp sensor is listed on Anders site as being for the 1.7 and VW type 3 not the 2.0. All the fuel injection set up is stock other wise.

L-jet busses had the CHT sensor mounted in place of the shroud screw next to the #3 runner, not the #4 site as shown. They didn't use the spacer as shown. That was a T3 part, and maybe T1 as well. 914s never used this setup, but I doubt it would present a problem. BTW, busses have been known to have issues with the sensor coming loose. When you install one there, you MUST assure the tin is clearanced for the sensor so it sits flat against the head.
