bd32322 Posted June 2, 2011 Report Posted June 2, 2011 anyone have a jpi edm 700 oil temp probe that they are looking to sell? i believe the jpi part number is 400505 thx, Bodi Quote
The-sky-captain Posted June 3, 2011 Report Posted June 3, 2011 I don't have one for sell but I just had one hooked up to my JPI 700. I was surprised to see that the original gauge and the JPI gauge read exactely the same. Quote
bd32322 Posted June 3, 2011 Author Report Posted June 3, 2011 does the JPI show the correct temp even before startup. I live in Massachusetts and during winter I would like to know whether my preheater has actually worked. I am thinking it may not show temperature if its below a certain low value - say 100F ? Thanks, Bodi Quote
The-sky-captain Posted June 3, 2011 Report Posted June 3, 2011 Bodi- It sure does. It's nice to hit the master and check the oil temp on a cold morning before hooking up the engine heater and returning a few hours later to see a significient change and much warmer oil. Since I just got an engine overhaul I wanted to know what the oil temp was before starting my runup and it does that to a tee. Quote
flyboy0681 Posted June 6, 2011 Report Posted June 6, 2011 I have the OAT and Oil Temp probes and when I hit the master all temps agree with each other, including the cylinder heads. Quote
bd32322 Posted June 6, 2011 Author Report Posted June 6, 2011 interesting - I only see 40F or 50F before engine startup for the CHT even after I have preheated for the whole night and outside temps are 20F (Reiff preheater system) - I dont have OAT or Oil Temp. I havent checked it in the summer though - because now I dont care. Although I'd better get the preheater checked out before fall/winter .. Quote
