I have a ring cylinder head sensor, the ring type that fits under the spark plug.
I have a VDO cylinder head temp gauge. Two questions: Does the ring fit between the spark plug washer and the cylinder head or bewteen the washer and the spark plug, providing the best seal for the spark plug? What is the wiring of the sensor to gauge? I have two 16ga. wires running from the engine bay, through the central tunnel up to the dashboard. My understanding is that the temp sensor acts as a resitor which varies with the temp. Thus you provide a positive flow through the gauge, to the sensor which grounds out on the engine block. How wrong am I? Thanks, Larry |
