Placement differs between engine types and even specific models.Consult the specific engine’s manual for proper EGT locations.Rotax EnginesFor Rotax 912 engines, only two of the four cylinders are typically monitored for EGT. Unlike theCHT probes which are mounted on diagonal cylinders, the EGT probes should be mounted onthe two rear cylinders’ exhaust manifolds. It is critical that the EGT probes be mounted toparallel cylinders’ exhaust manifolds for proper temperature comparison.All EnginesOnce you have determined the appropriate EGT locations for your engine, drill 1/8” diameterholes at the specified positions in the exhaust manifold. Usually, this spot is 2 to 8 inches fromthe cylinder. This spot should be on a straight portion of the exhaust manifold, as this providesa better fit for the hose clamps. For best results, mount all probes the same distance from eachcylinder.Make sure the hole is placed to ensure that the probe does not interfere with the cowlor spark plug. Also, when making holes, keep in mind that the probe could inhibit theability to perform routine maintenance if placed incorrectly.Place probe in exhaust manifold, and secure it by tightening the clamp with a flatheadscrewdriver. Make sure the clamp is tight and provides a secure fit, but do not overtightensuch that visible stress is put on the pipe.SkyView System Installation Guide - Revision J 7-25
