Hi Karl and All,
    The temperature 2 reading varies some with different sensors and
thermostats. I have never seen a properly operating one as high as 0.20
volts when warmed up.  I have never had a digitool installed and operating
below zero F either. I like your 0.12 volts, it is right in the ball park
with most. Temp 2 signal as well as all the other sensor  must be stable and
no jumping around excepting for the o2 sensor.     I have seen temp 2 as low
as 0.04 volts.  The key is to know your system and normal operating voltages
and one can pick up very slight anomalies.  Digifant and digijets have very
similar readings.
    I have been playing with the digitool on my 78 westy which has an 81 Cal
vanagon L-Jetronic system and it is very different on most voltage readings.
Darrell
