Hey guys,

I noticed two penny sized buttons glued to the side of my rotor housings;
in-between the leading and trailing spark plugs.  The side marking reads
"used parts void if removed? I finally figured out that they where glued on
by the engine rebuilder as an indicator of over heating.

I thought to myself "what a novel idea? Then I asked myself if this type of
glue on device could be used as warning indicator on various other parts of
engine, i.e. key points on the exhaust, reduction unit, etc.

Question, has anyone found a practical use for such an idea?

Lots. 

Those things are common in temp studies. Buy them from Omega.

Who rebuilt the engine?
