<x-charset iso-8859-1>> Figuring that in either case, the figure was too low, I switched in the > other sensor that was sent to me, which unfortunately didn't work at all. I checked mine out yesterday first thing in the morning. 2.5k ohms air temp sensor was 320 ohms. While measuring the head temp sensor I noticed that I was getting an intermittant reading. I thought perhaps the sensor wire was broken at first, then I noticed that the head temp sensor had come loose and was making a very poor contact to the head (electrically). I pulled the sensor out all the way, and measured across the sensor. I also adjusted the valves and changed the oil, something I dont like though, all the exhaust valves were again tight. Last time I adjusted the valves, #4 and #2 were tight, the time before that #1 and #3 were tight. This time all 4 were tight, and I mean tight as in less than "free zero". One other thing....I was digging around the fuel system (changing the filter). I noticed something in the fuel lines, that I didn't find any mention of in the Bentley. The output(middle connection?) of the pump is connected to a small, round can. The can is say 1/2" thick, it then is connected to the hard line in the tunnel. The input and output on this can are 180 degrees out. Anyone know what this is?
