Rule/Fact. Andrew and Vince are smarter than Chuck Norris. Period.

Does this mean we need to start a round of Andrew/Vince jokes? :D

Andrew, Vince, and Chuck walked into a parking lot and all the cars became diesels as they couldn't handle it.

Can anyone who has ordered the 10-01478 probe tell me how long the leads are?  I'm thinking I'm going to need at least 10'.  I'm planning to use this probe with a VDO pyrometer.  Anybody see any problems with that?

Ten feet!? Where are you putting the probe?  ??? You transverse boys are even closer to the exhaust manifold than my longitudinal diesels are...

Hey, I'm a longitudinal diesel guy too!  I guess I just need to go out there and run a mock line from the turbo (toward the front of the engine) into the console.  I figured 10' would give me plenty of room to work with.
