Hi,
I am thinking to install the oil temp controller from experimentalgoodies.com, I am not sure if there is a second port on the TMX-IO-540 to install an oil temp probe. I don't have my manual with me and won't be in the hangar for a couple of days so I 'd appreciate if someone could help.
Thanks
Mike

Yes. There are plugs at the front of the engine that are used during overhaul to clean the oil galleys. You can remove one (very carefully) with an appropriately sized allen socket.
It is worth having the right size that you can put a 3/8s ratchet wrench on. You may have to also apply some heat with a propane torch in that area to loosen whatever sealant was used on the plug. They are difficult to get loose, and you darn sure do not want to round off the flats on the allen plug.
