Now I remember reading some of this on another thread. It's coming back.
When your done testing, I think a probe break-in is in order. Just to discover what that probe is made of. I'll be keeping my eyes out for sure.
So, I take it you get more resistance as heat goes up and less resistance as heat is removed. Have you tried heating it with a cig. lighter or something to see if it generates voltage on it's own? I may have missed this earlier as I did the above, but bare with me.
What ceramic conducts electricity to a point of flowing all possible current at absolute zero? Interesting, that means that this ceramic becomes more dense as temperature comes down. Must not be a self powered probe. Is this a two wire probe? I've never seen an llm probe. Just wondering.
FWIW
Pyrometers work because of electron flow from two different metals. If amperage is used from source ( probe ) more heat is required to compensate for wattage harnessed from this probe. For example, copper and iron. These two metals touching together and heated will create electron...
I'll ship you an intercooler this week end. Thanks to Maxlly ( James ) I have an extra one for ya. Oh wait, I think he sent it to me so as to ship it to you. It will be in the mail soon Kevin.;)
Dale, that 8V92 is a supercharged/turbocharged 2 stroke engine. The positive displacement charger on that thing really packs a punch with heat. The supercharger is for starting that diesel engine, then becomes a compound setup as boost from the turbocharger increases. We really can't compare...
Just remember, quantity has to be available to achieve higher rail pressure. Ie.. Lower pulse width as start, then raise till rail will not hold. Then just put the rail where you want it with pw as a control.
If it were open, you'd have really high boost, if shorted, you'd have close to zero. If you have Efi, or some way of logging or viewing your pid's, check your boost reading from your mechanical gauge with that of the log or electronic data.
Ohhh, I see. The problem is, they are driving on the wrong side of the car.... That's the only problem I see. lol
Have you seen the one with the little car loaded with ply-wood, cement, and lumber leaving the Home Depot?
