    How to add a temperature guage

    I was told that a t fitting was not the way to go, as the coolant fills it and stays stagnant, it will not read the true temperature of the coolant... It is better to have it in the flow of coolant.

    JP8 in M1009

    I run a 50/50 mixture of JP5 and WMO, 5 gal in every tank. It offsets my fuel costs a bit and it is not enough WMO that I have coking issues. The JP juels do not have the lube properties, and the oil will coke if run at a higher ratio, so my mix does well in saveing me money.
