    Thanks all, So using my ready-readers that you can nearly see bacteria with, I found the numbers Ron mentioned on the white wires - yay. So we have established that one must ignore the UMA install guide as far as the wires chosen to connect the gauge to - on the 914 it is different - I will let UMA know how confusing this information is. Now I know which of the white wires to connect the gauge to, it does raise another question - since the UMA gauge requires that one of the signal wires is also connected to GROUND, is the Turbo Control Unit (TCU) fussy about which one ? Am I likely to short out the TCU in some way, by connecting one of these wires that exit the TCU and connect to the UMA gauge to ground ? I don't want to make a meal of this, but the TCU is a costly bit of kit to replace and I do not want to damage it of course. Any thoughts ?

    Word of caution to all you aspiring fighter pilots trying for the ultimate performance from your engine/prop: Auto fuels (95 & 98 RON) are; Not subject to the some quality control standards of AvGas - variation due to adulteration & contamination with other fuels is common. I use 98 RON most of the time. 95 RON if 98 is not available and on very rare occasions, when no ULP obtainable, AvGas. I have always used 98 RON on the assumption (hopefully not false) that if the fuel had been adulterated, with other fuels (lower grade ULP petrol, Ethanol blend or diesel) then I am burning at least the equivalent of 95 RON. So my advise is; Be conservative with the way you set up your engine/prop -------- 46 Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=501547#501547

    Subject: Europa Classic Pre Purchase Advice
    From: "Griffo" <scangriffin@bigpond.com.au>
    I have just completed my finale purchase inspection of a Europa Classic. If the purchase proceeds, I will probably replace the transceiver As you will know the Europa's composite skin facilitates the installation of an internal transceiver antenna. I this case a dipole, in the vertical tail/fin. My question is: Is the dipole inherently "tuned" ? or could it require SWR adjustment ? In my research, I checked every Europa Mandatory& Recommended Modification - all Mandatory's have been done EXCEPT a LAA "Standard Modification" No SM11906, Issue 2, "Stabilator Torque Tube Drive Assembly Your comments/advice on this omission wold be much appreciated -------- 46 Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=501549#501549
