I was thinking about a couple of recent threads where there were questions about whether the temperature showing on a gauge was correct.
I'd always wanted one of these IR thermometers so I had a quick look on Ebay and saw one for $16.99.
Has to be rubbish at that price, right?
Well, I've tested it several times on my engine both hot and cold including the outside temp sensor and it's been within 0.5 degree each time.
I've checked it against the TI outside temp display up in the roof console and my Ecutalk engine temp display.
Came back from shopping with engine temp showing 81C so opened the bonnet and got 82C off the top rad hose after stopping the engine.
