Thanks, Paul. That particular option makes complete sense, but would require altering the fuel plumbing on my aircraft, because the fuel flow to the carburetors goes through a four-way splitter. The splitter gets the fuel from the pump on one leg, routes fuel to the carburetors on two legs and has a restrictor in the fourth leg for the fuel return. I'm trying to stick with the as-delivered kit components for now.
Based on the earlier replies, I'm planning to put the flow sensor between the gascolator and the fuel pump, then calibrate the Dynon to account for the fuel return. The portion of the fuel going to the return may not be a linear relationship, so the calibration remains uncertain, but probably close enough for practical purposes. I'll see how it goes.
I suspect the Brauniger flow sensor provides a pulsed output like the Flowscan, but I don't know for sure. As you suggest, I'll try Dynon and see if they have the answer.
Regards,
Paul Kuntz
