EGT wires....extension?
Just curious, I'm hooking up two EGT's and might, possibly, *just* reach the intended location of the gauge without adding any wire.
However, ideally I'd like to add a plug to easily remove the entire assembly (both in the a-pillar) if need be rather then fishing out the connectors on the back of the gauge.
Which brings me to - will they work correctly if I add:
a) one metripack connector (ie, two crimped on pins)
b) 2ft of regular wire
c) 2ft of other thermocouple wire from older Hewitt Ktype TC's
d) B+A
e) C+A
I've measured the resitance of pieces of wire, the metripack pins, the actual thermocouple(s), and don't see why this won't work but a few people have told me that thermocouples use thermocouple wire and nothing else and its got me worried enough to pose the question.
Yes? No?
