 |
|
Hi,
I'm planning on doing the Europa Club Fuel Capacitance mod which involves having 2 probes and senders fitted to the tank between the headrests with an output to a dual gauge readout.
Has anyone who has done this used the Westach probes and gauge?
Thanks,
Phil

Yep, good mod to do. I used the Westach probes but connected to a Dynon 180.
You can buy them from Pete Smoothy at Airworld but they are not genuine
Westach and look identical but work in a different way so you will need to
use the gauges provided. This problem took me some time to work out till I
discovered only the genuine item would work with the Dynon. If you also
incorporate a Floscan you can dispense with the sight tube.

Dave,
My monowheel was PFA approved with the dual capacitance probe/indicator and no fuel sighting tube at all. The EI fuel flow system was fitted much later.
