Brief Description:  Carburetor Temperature Probe Wiring - Part 1

The Lycoming IO-390 engine on the RV-8 is fuel injected and doesn't have a "carburetor" but rather a throttle body which is similar to a carburetor in function. The EIS-4000 Engine Monitor is capable of monitoring a "carburetor temperature probe" and so I wired it up. The throttle body doesn't have a port to screw the temperature probe into like a carb would, so I will have to drill and tap the fiberglass induction snorkel later when its installed. For now, the probe is wired up and tested good and I'll just leave it hanging until I'm ready to install it.
