Default CHT probes in TMX engine
For those of you with the TMX engines, do they use the screw-type CHT probes?



Or do I need to buy the spark plug gasket probes?



Thanks!

Default Probe Type
I used the adaptors and bayonet style probes that came with GRT's EIS 4000 Very clean installation and easy to remove when they are in the way.
