The resistance specs for the senders are the same, including an allowance
of +/- 12.5% (at 100C) .  That doesn't mean that the ECU necessarily drives
them the same way.  My own *guess* would be that the difference is not
significant and/or relates to grounding.  But it's strictly a guess.  If
Darrell would send out 800 Digitools we'd have some real data! <g>

That was what we got with both installed and replacement sensors, using Ken
Wilford's Digitool installed on his ECU in my motor.

Yeah, but what does he know?  <g>

Again, my guess is no.  Someone who knows speak up?
