My Apexi seems to be getting intermitent readings. Sometimes it shows just a row of dashes. And earlier it told me temps were -36 and then suddenly sorted itself out.

Ta.

IIRC it\'s under the upper inlet manifold, that\'s what I\'ve read.

I think i found it. Is it under the top part of the intake facing upwards towards the rear of the engine?

Strangely - its behaved itself all day and I did a fair few miles too. So ive left it alone and will keep an eye on it. Thanks all for trying to help.
