Here is the reply I received from Steve Bennett regarding the VW engine: >Hi Sid, years ago, I moved the CHT around my KR to find the average CHT >temperature. The closest to the average was the cylinder head stud, behind >the intake, either one. They were within 10ºF of each other. In this >location, you put the sender against the head, and re-torque the nut to 18 ft. >lbs. Temp should run about 300 to 320ºF on climb and about 275 to 290ºF in >cruise.

I'd had the sparkplugs out and when I put them back in one of the CHT probes (which I noticed wasn't looking that good) got a little twisted and frayed. That allowed one of the sparkplug thermocouple probe wires to short, which makes the EIS a little crazy...
