Hi Paul, Hi Tony,
just a question regarding the pressure sensor. Do you mount the sensor at
the lowest point possible or above max fuel level. The reason for this
question is: If mounted above max fuel level then how would you detect a
small air leak over time on a fuel tank? I would see the tank going empty by
just some very tiny air leak. If you have the sensor at the bottom level:
How chemical resistant is the pressure sensor and what is the possibility
that the fuel varnish inside the tubes and the sensor and causes a blockage
with the worst kind scenario a full reading on an empty tank? I am part
owner on a C150 with auto fuel STC. When we got the plane the plane was
sitting for a while and the fuel varnished and gummed up all the drain
valves etc. Also a EAA member brought a piece of rubberized fuel line into
our meeting. The fuel line was totally destroyed by the mogas.
Thanks
