Hi Dan,

Thanks for jumpin' in, well if this gun would only set me back a $100 I 
think I will buy one.
And since it is so usefull for the bbq too, I might be even able to use the 
household budget of my wife LOL

I would like to confirm Dave's suggestion of using the temperature gun.  As 
I was flushing, cleaning, freeze plugging, and generally getting my cooling 
system back to functionality, a borrowed infra-red temp. gun was invaluable. 
Especially since my "lesser" Chrysler has only an idiot light.  They are 
simple to use, accurate, and could be used for all kinds of temperature 
readings, i.e., tranny temp., rear axle temp., brake drum temp., A/C air 
duct temp., etc.

I believe they are less than $100 - and as Dave mentioned (which may force 
me to purchase my own), you can use them on the bar-bee.

Just a thought,
