Third one attached but read -10 without firing ignition whilst water reads 10 deg.

What else could be causing this?

For now the rev limiter will kick in at 4k rev which is going to be just a little frustrating.

Could well be worth checking all the connections and in particular the earths, poor connection or poor earth can give weird readings. Beyond that i would give Power/ Str8Six/ Track V Road or similar a call and ask for some advice/ help.

Any tips on which earth - i have cleaned the contacts to it. Power have replaced before and it works ok for a bit and then does this again.

Sorry dont know which one it is, earths is always a good one to start with, you could try running a seperate earth back to a known good earth as a trial. Beyond that try tracing the circuit and check all the connections on any plugs, I would assume the sensor works on resistance so any poor connections / earths will give dodgy readings.

Thanks - Graham's bible suggests plug K - no Pod issues at all outside of this, so I will search for that. If anyone can tell me where that should be, that would be helpful.
