Temp sensor help

[Eric]

Well thank you all for the help.  I got the temp guage working this 
afternoon.  Tony I followed your idea and put the JT sensor on the back 
of the head.  The '85 KH uses that spot for on boost cold enrichment, 
but I had never hooked it up anyway.  I tried to get the multifunction 
sensor to work, but no luck.

Installing the sensor was a little exciting.  I looked at my JT motor 
sitting in my garage and saw that sensor location was not drilled all 
the way to the water jacket.  I thought maybe I should dig out my extra 
KH head and check that one.  Too much work I said.  Well it is 
surprising (especially when you are not expecting it) how much coolant 
can shoot out of the head horizontally just from residual pressure.  
Luckily it was not hot and luckily for the local animals it was low 
tox.  Still I ended up watering my driveway and engine compartment to 
clean it all up.  It is amazing how far a few cups of coolant will go.

Well all that stands in the way of high boost nirvana now is getting the 
oil pressure warning system working correctly. 

Maybe next weekend.
