Craig,
For checking the fuel system i added fuel flow sensors in both feed and return
line, and the matronix controller to see fuel flow on the Dynon (or any other
fuel flow meter). Extra is a switch that takes the return flow sensor out of the
equation. The result on the fuel flow meter is the netto throughput of the
system. Part of the checklist is to check that switch and see that the fuel 
exceeds
120 liters per minute on each pump, and increases with 2 pumps. Any malfunction
or blockage will show up, taking the guessing out before flight. 

Regards,

Jos Okhuijsen
