Identify TIT probe?


Recommended Posts

The one on the left appears to be the original TIT probe, the one on the right is a JPI probe.  The band clamp looks to have holes to accept them both.  I’ve seen this method before.

OK,

 

It is a 1980 231K. You are correct.. This is a OEM probe. The problem is that neither the ship's TIT or CDT work. The gauge is a B&D instruments Valley Center Kansas. I will look for a wiring schematic and ck it is getting power. Continuity from probes to gauge is good. The wires to gauge are not a home run. There is a screw/bolt connection, then thru firewall. 

 

Anybody have a wiring pic for that instrument? Lookslike about 6 pins are used. 

 

 

 

Tks

Yes, where a band clamp has been modified to allow use of 2 TIT probes in the same location of the transition pipe.

I don’t know what you serial number is, or if this wiring schematic will be clear enough.

I circled it in red...

@willerjim273 and @M20Doc is that a leak, and how important is that?

PP concern only, not a mechanic...

In the shop we use an old Filter Queen vacuum cleaner with the hose on the discharge side and a plug to connect to the tail pipe to pressurize the exhaust system to find leaks.

Exhaust system V band clamps have a short life of generally 2 installations and retorqing.  The K model manual doesn’t restrict it, but it’s worthy of consideration.
