N7SC,


I’m glad you have a quality instrument. Since the temperature of boiling water is affected by the pressure of the atmosphere, be sure to factor that into your calibration. Be aware that the accuracy of instruments can drift along the scale. Unless you have a calibrated thermometer, I would not rely on it's readings for precise measurements.

I would install one of the ECTs and see how it runs. If it runs poorly and fails driveability checks, THEN order a new one.
