2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission Pyro Probe Location

[Evan A. Beck]

I'm just curious about this one... Where is everyone running their pyro probe? Before of after the turbo? I think it should always be in the manifold, but hey, thats just my opinion.

 

[BRobertson]

Both!!!

Have had both. Like pre better (feel better knowing temp's for sure).

 

[TURBOs4LIFE]

Hey Evan put "Both" in your poll.

 

[Steve M]

Since I run bone stock, I'm only concerned with shutdown temp. Highest I've seen yet is 850*F post turbo.

 

[dresslered]

Ditto with Steve.

 

[Chipstien]

Pre-turbo here.

Hey Evan... . you should know since you installed mine.

 

[JTBMC]

Running 2 probes both in the manifold, checking al 6 cycinders

 

[Dane]

Say, that's kind of personnel asking folks which side of the turbo they like to put their probe...

I put mine post turbo on Cummns recommendation. All of the service manuals I have at work say to put the probe 3 to 4 inches down pipe from the turbo. I know that this doesn't give the same reading that everyone else gets , but I am careful about how hot my readings are. I checked our fleet and out of 132 tucks that I checked all were post turbo. Some of our dumps will show 1200 after a long hard pull without any problems.

Hey Evan, if someone actually votes "I don't have an EGT gauge", does a robot hand come out of the computer and smack them upside their head??



Pre for me!!

 

[tmacc]

PRE for me too. Tom, I think what happens if one selects "I don't have a EGT gauge" is The new "Meltdown" virus is released into their computer and the only thing that shows on the screen is a puddle of molten aluminum.

(BTW, cap came today, thanks. )

 

[johnrv4]

1 pre, and 1 post turboOo. Oo.

 

[98rammer]

how about the "I don't have an EGT guage YET" ...

 

[Michael Hughes]

I have both pre and post. So I can't vote.

 

[CumminsPower98]

Pre and post here.

 

[jbone]

Both!!! R, J. B.

Pre Turbo on front three cylinders.

Hey tjlaffite, I heard that the front exhaust ports runn the hottest. Since your measuring both, which is hotter, front cylinders or rear?
