Apr 30, 2024     Discussion on how to mount Fuel Pressure Sensor - (2 hours) Category: Engine
LONG discussion on how to mount the fuel pressure sensor. I had ordered an adapter to mount the sensor on the fuel rail just before the pressure regulator from Lockwood. The issue is that both of the sides of the adapter are metric threads. The sensor is a standard threading. After much discussion with Dean and ourselves, the options are to order a metric threaded pressure sensor which would be a one-off for Dynon to support with custom pressure curves. Have a new adapter machined ($$$), we could use a manifold I also bought from Lockwood that the pressure sensor could be screwed in but should be mounted after the small filter. and it needs to have the return fuel routed through it so any air trapped in the line will find its way back to the header tank. Chris has proceeded with the new adapter. and also wants to have me install the manifold. I am torn and it would require new fuel hoses to be made.
