What value R7 and R8 for CLT sensor?
I know this is an Asked-and-Answered question, but the answers all seem contradictory.
Assuming I am building a standalone 3.0 MS-I, and using the stock 1.6 CLT sensor, what values of R7 (the CLT pullup) and R8 (the CLT offset) should I use?

Ah ha- fast edit there, Sam.
Yeah, this is not a piggyback install. There must be some value of R7, just wasn't sure whether the stock value was best, or some other value.

Thats funny because my car is a 90 and in order to get the temp readings right I had to use somewhere around 1200 for the bias resistor. I did replace the coolant sensor about a year ago with a part i bought from checkers I think. Think they gave me the wrong part?
Oh one more thing, my GM IAT sensor is about 20degrees off. Its reading that much cooler so i had to offset the linear line by about that much. Now after leaving the car to cool down over night i get temp readings that are about 3-5 degrees off from each other.

Anyone see CLT go over 215*? Mine never has.

Did you check your low temp readings? I replaced my sensor today after verifying the readings. It is definitely the same values as the RX7 unit so it's not an easytherm value thing. It has to either be a hardware defect of some kind, or wrong bias resistance. Check yours in the 20-30s and let me know what it reads.
