    Standard TD5 Auto 2000

    Sensor located in spare thread above fuel regulator on right rear of head.

    temp 74-78 for this time of year.

    Was thinking of moving the sensor to centre of head to see difference but with alloy, it will do just fine.

    Cheers

    88-89 degrees according to the nanocom, can rise to 100 on long hills. Dashboard gauge doesn't move.
