 Posted: Wed Jul 23, 2008 2:46 pm Post subject: 601XL Fuel Sender / Gauge Questions |
 |
|
I have a few questions regarding the 601XL fuel system:
§ Photo Assembly Guide page 6-K-1b references VDO fuel gauge P/N 301-020, and explains how to connect the wiring from the sender unit to the gauge. Are these gauges supposed to be part of the kit, (I cannot find them and do not see them listed in the kit packing list)?
§ Is it more reliable to run the fuel tank and fuel sender ground wires directly to the ground buss vs. grounding them to the airframe, (I am priming all faying surfaces so I am concerned about a poor ground)?
§ Does anyone know if the VDO fuel senders will work for anything other than the VDO fuel gauges? Will they work with any EIS systems?
Thanks,
Dave Van Lanen

The fuel gauges are not part of the kit. (At least not mine.)
I used local grounds and they work well.
The senders work well with the Dynon D180.
