At that very point myself. Decided the opportunity to monitor all six EGT's as a diagnostic tool will make the install worthwhile.



Now, my question : Installing the six probes under the plugs for the CHT. How can I fit the probe ring under the plug & still get a plug socket on the plug well enough to seat plug/probe ring? what am I missing here?

 Grind a part of the cooling fin off that blocks it at the plug.  Will  require removing a piece the size of your fingernail

I had the same problem.

Jabiru said to grind off some of the fins on the head.  I did not want to 

grind off anything on my $21K package.

Jabiru Jim had me purchase Champion spark plugs # 905.  These have a small 

socket size and work perfectly..

Have heard that you can change to a round terminal and fit it under a

head stud. Apparently it reads a few degrees cooler, but saves oil leaks

etc from plug. Haven't tried it, but sounds like a good idea.
