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.

I just put mine in through the spark plug hole in the tin (cylinder 3, if no one has mentioned it yet) and I am just careful when installing new plugs. Do it the right way if you have the engine out though.

Do it the right way if you have the engine out though. If you didn't put a grommet over the TC wire where it meets the tin it could chafe thru and then you'd likely be reading temperature of the tin itself (IMG:style_emoticons/default/screwy.gif) |
