The gun belongs to my hangar neighbor. He is an electronics engineer (another one. i'm gona puke :)). First he calibrated the gun. Than he pointed it to the area closest to the temp sensor by the oil pressure sensor. The temp reading was same as the EM2 water temp reading. Than he moved to the pump outlet, thin wall 1.5" aluminum tube. the reading was lower.
I could not believe it so we did it again. Same results.

I did it with one of the handheld temp meters. Surprisingly the water  exiting the pump was about 5-10 degree lower temp? Did it couple  different ways and the results were similar.

Group,



Has anyone measured the water temp difference between the stock  (under the oil filter tower) and the water pump outlet. Bill Eslick  and I were discussing this a couple of weeks ago. I am measuring  water temp going out of the engine, post water pump outlet. Just  curious!



Thanks,

Jason
