Furhter investigation revealed that measuring the airbox temperature is
not an easy task. The sensor has to be mounted in the metal heat
conducting airbox, and measure the temperature of a very bad heat
conductor inside. It appears to be difficult to prevent heat from the
airbox itself to influence the sensor.
I prepared a special temperature sensor for this, but even this sensor
appears to leak some heat from the mounting thread to the tip.
I have asked UMA to make a special airbox temperature sensor for me. If
anyone is interested, I can ask them to make a few more of these.
