[TR] Spitfire Mk III temperature sensor substitute

[Bud R]

Is the GTR 110 indicative of the set point for the sensor? That it  
does something at 110 degrees?

In looking I've seen some sensors that are supposed to be for the  
Spitfire and they are GTR108 sensors. Does that mean it does something  
at 108 degrees? Which might actually help since even the manual says  
normal is 3/4 on the gage. Then again maybe the reverse is true, that  
the gage would read even higher. Any thoughts on which way to go in  
"GTR" numbers to reach the middle ground on the gage? Higher than  
GTR110 or lower?

Thanks
Bud
