I'm bench testing a stock oil temp sending unit from a taco plate. It shows resistance of 2800 ohms at room temp and 160 ohms in boiling water.
The only reference I found to the resistance range on this is from McMark on this thread: http://www.914world.com/bbs2/lofiversion/i...php?t97987.html Where he says: "These senders operate in a range of 3000 to 1000 ohms (pretty sure on this, my sample measures 2500 at room temp)." Mine drops well below 1000 ohms when hot...is it still good? |
