Checking my temp sensor before I drop the engine back in.
2014 M8000 LTD
I boiled a pot of water, put in a thermometer and the sensor and took resistance readings as the temp dropped.
The image below shows the results.
What kind of tolerance with OHM would I expect to see? It's off by anywhere from 17-100 Ohm. Do you think the sensor is bad?
I replaced coolant pump seals but didn't do anything with the thermostat yet.
Any other ideas for overheating issues? maybe there's something clogged in the heat exchanger?
I replaced coolant, got air out of system, it still went hot.
There was a small pinhole leak in the oil pump inlet, what could that have done?
Arctic Cat parts were stupid to get this year, I didn't end up riding at all... I'd like to try to get at least one day in... once she's all back together, test my fixes.
Thanks for any help!
