ABSTRACT:
An internal combustion engine is provided with a heat sink 6 with thermistor pellets 10, 22, 32 of PTC material. This heat sink is held in position inside a through passage for the fuel mixture through the action of clamp means 14; 17; 23; 33 which press the heat sink against the inside surface of the through passage. Obviously the heat sink is electrically insulated with respect to the engine. Advantages are that no plastics contact carrier and an opening in the wall of the manifold are needed and that the temperature peak is moved from the unloaded side towards the middle of the thickness of the thermistor pellets.
