    Subject: Re: Cylinder Head Temperature Gages
    Hi Mark, Actually the Yak 52=99s had both CHT probes on the rear plug of #4 cyl inder from the factory. I never found out why both were on #4. But I guess they knew what they were d oing. I knew #2 would always be hotter because I would test the cylinders with a l aser temperature instrument. But still I never changed the configuration. The only way to truly know is with a 9 cylinder CHT instrument. Ask who has a JPI or similar engine monitor system installed on their engine. They will d efinitely know which are the hottest cylinders and in what flight configurat ion. Like takeoff, climb, cruise, slow flight, glide, aerobatics, etc. Dennis Sent from my iPhone > On Jun 20, 2020, at 12:51 AM, Mark Pennington <pennington.construction.inc .1@gmail.com> wrote: > > =EF=BB > Dennis. > > We have this cleared up for the Housai. > > Is it the same for M14P.

    Thanks again Walt for the verification on where the temp pickups are located on which sparkplugs. Swapping gages after a wire check will be next.
