I found this write-up about engine temperatures very useful&interesting. I tried to see his video about the setups he made BUT the link is not active. Does anyone have his video, maybe? Thanks

Because the D24TIC has a bad reputation in cooling i was wondering what temperatures my D24TIC is running at.
I made a digital temp.gauge out of a kit (from a online-electronics-store).
With a modification i can measure 5 different temperatures at different places in the engine.
The colours of the graph-lines are explained as follows;
orange; coolwater in the cilinder-head,running toward the radiator
bleu ; engine-oil , directly measured in the oilpan/sump
purple; coolwater coming out of the radiator towards the engine
green ; no temperature, this is aprox. the distance in KM starting from home
The other temperatures i can read are;
- inlet-air-temperature between turbo and intercooler
- inlet-air-temperature from intercooler to inlet-manifold
To give a impression of the gauge i made a short movie of my home-build-navigation-pop-up-mechanism with at the and a look at the knob for selecting the measure-device and the display reading the temps. in celcius.
