sorry for all of these weird parts requests lately
I'm hoping someone has bought/done this recently
or knows the correct part source


I want to replace the sender ring that goes under the spark plug for my console (small gauge) vdo CHT

in the past I've bought the sender separately that was the correct calibration for my gauge (100-600F)

I think it was a VW aftermarket source like CB?
but looking on their site didn't turn anything up
does anyone know where to buy one of these replacements?

thanks in advance
again!

14mm

Stock is 14mm T4 and /6, sometimes engines have been modified for 12mm.

Those ones look like Type E therocouples; if I'm not mistaken the VDO CHT gauge is for Type K thermocouples.

Sorry, wrong link, try this one:

http://www.aircraftspruce.com/pages/in/pro...cht/1105561.php

"These are all "K-type" thermocouples and they come in sizes 10mm, 12mm, 14mm and 18mm"
