- | |||
- | Drill a hole just a bit smaller than the thermometer rod through the center so it fits snug. \\ | ||
- | Then drill a hole through the top of the oil cap. \\ | ||
- | Going through the bottom, there is a plastic piece that guides the drill bit. \\ | ||
- | Slide the meat thermometer in place with some JB weld on the bottom of it so it stays in place. \\ | ||
- | (make sure not to get the JB Weld on the rod itself as it needs to go up and down with the oil cap) \\ | ||
