 |

Here are the numbers using the Direct Reading Gauge with all air bled from
the lines.
Electric Pump on. Engine not running: 4.7
Electric Pump on, Engine Idle: 6.0
Electric pump off, Engine Idle: 5.3
1700 RPM Electric pump on: 5.0
1700 RPM Electric pump off: 5.0
I actually bought a new sender because one read approximately 3.0 and the
other read approximately 7.0.
The new one reads 5.0 to 6.0 with all air bled from the lines. Very stable
with minor fluctuations.
I'm told by Lycoming that the correct fuel pressure is form 3.0 to 8.0. So
this is as close as it going to get.
Cappy's Toy is, and was A OK. Thanks Randy for your help.
Also past elevator trim problems (electric trim jamming) was fixed on the
January Annual by changing the relay deck.
If anyone wants to borrow the direct fuel pressure gage, just let me know.
That includes Stormy, who may want to do
some experiments.

I'll take you up on that, Cap, when warmer wx arrives and it's time
to start the new panel swap-out. Looking forward to lots of down-time
then ;-(
