    How about a sliver of wood or something that you can gently wedge in the hole from the underside when cold. :) Tim

    I don't know.

    do you happen to have a thing called gravity down there??? Personally I always tell people to take that clip and throw it in the trash!

    because they went out in the trash years ago! Those clips CAN cause many problems such as turning them from the dome side thus throwing them out of calibration to causing them to impale a yard bird or turkey when closing the dome. When an UN-obstructed dome thermometer can be pulled up with ease then the probe doesn't get bent. Get my point? Now...I'm gone - good night!
