To save the gas it'd have to be something that detects rich & instantly cuts the injector open time or something. hey, wait a sec...that's what the vw engineers ended up doing in later models...

Back on topic,(sorry) I have a type k thermocouple wire with a crimped on ring terminal under plug #3 connected to a $11 handheld thermometer taped to the dash. (That's right, I spare no expense). CHT's are in the 380-400 around town and rise up to about 420-430 on highway around 65...all on mildly hilly terrain. Engine has 25k & is a VW Canada rebuild from around 1998.
