That looks pretty much about where I've got mine mounted. About 3 years since installation and no apparent problems. Gauge starts reading within a few seconds of starting cold. Same here, can take a photo and post it tonight if you want. Has been working great for me also. Falcor75 - definitely post that pic. I dropped the muffler off this morning. Should pick it up this afternoon and install when I get home. |

That's good but it might not be quite the 10 or 2 o'clock position, easily adjusted with the heating and bar trick.

Problem with that install is it's closer to a 9 o'clock position, so the sensor may not drain all of the moisture out of the sensor. Heat the surrounding metal cherry red, then taking a bar bend the sheet metal and bung up 30 degrees and closer to the 10 O'clock position. |

Umm no, I'm not putting a torch to my Scart muffler.
The sensor is fine, its heated and has been there for 18 months with zero issues. I think the 10-12 position has more relevance if you mount the sensor in a smaller diameter exhaust pipe, in my case its still 4 inches from the bottom of the "tube" so any moisture trapped in the exhaust will have a hard time reaching the sensor tip. |
