EGOR testing

For my probe I used a chunk of muffler tubing 18" long 1.5 diameter.   Then
used some spark plug non-foulers, and trimmed off the threaded end.    Then
a piece of 1x.125x10" steel strap iron, and put a little Z in the end of it,
just enough of a kink so the tubing would go inside the actual muffler
tubing, and the strap peice on the outside.   Weld the fouler piece about 6"
from one end, and then the strap iron piece.   Use a large radiator hose
clamp to keep it inserted.
   It's passed some high speed tests, even the EFI POWWOW curb test (inside
joke).
