Urghhh. When autocraft put my heads on, they switched the sides. Now my temp sensor #2 is on cylinder #2 instead of #3. My memory is that temp sensor is a reverse relationship ( temp increases=resistance decreases). IS this significant? My thinking is that Cylinder #2 runs cooler less than #3. Thus, sensor at cylinder #2 would read more resistance than would be reflected by Cylinder #3. Thus, how do I compensate or will I need to switch the heads again?
Thanks,
L.McC

You are correct about the relationship. I suppose the wires might reach and it could be run that way. Not an optimum set-up, but it might work okay. Personally, I'd have the shop do the swap.
