I am hoping I did not fry my sensor. When I did the clutch last time I forgot the ground strap. The electrical gods were more than happy to use the metal sheath on the sensor.... There was smoke, I have been afraid to test it....
RE: Getting an EGT today :D - iheartboost - 08-20-2011
im confused? how did you blow it up by not grounding? mines just two cables positive and negative to the probe
RE: Getting an EGT today :D - winmutt - 08-21-2011
The engine ground to the frame through the metal sheeth on the egt probe when I tried to start it

This indeed ended up being part of the problem with my EGT sensor that I finally used!
