Is a cylinder head temp sensor needed on a carburated car? It seems it is just for the "computer" on an FI car, but I need to clarify.

The ring is attached to a long wire that leads to your display. So no, the ring shouldn't be at risk of getting lost. At least that's how it is on my Dakota Digital setup.
Putting it on the plug and then getting the plug in the head can be slightly tricky, particularly if the head hasn't had any material removed to allow the room for the ring/wire so they can sit flat aginst the head. On one set of heads I used a dremel to cut away some relief. I think the AAA heads now are cast with a relief already there. |
