Ed,

Here's the cure!

I read about this idea in the EAA UL magazine several years ago. Get a 10 mm size CHT sensor (available from CPS or Lockwood) and place it under one of the 8 mm cylinder head nuts (I used the rear most bolt/nut position on the PTO end, thinking it might be the hottest).  It won't give you the same cylinder head temperature that it would under the spark plug (it will read a lower figure), BUT it can be used as a reference to see if your CHT is changing due to a broken fan belt or whatever. And it ends the broken sensor saga.

List,

Has anyone figured out a way to keep from ruining the CHT attachment ring under the sparkplug? Mine broke and I would like to keep from replacing it again if at all possible. Any trick to it?
