| Subject: | fuel pressure sensor |
I have a GRT sensor which is occasionally providing a reading of 38 psi
which puts me into the out of limits condition for the Chelton displays.
Normal reading is about 29 psi. part total time is about 450 hours.
anyone else had sensor problems? I carry a replacement in the tool/parts
box so I can change it but trying to confirm that it needs to be
replaced. Engine continues to perform properly.

Don't know if it's the same sensor, but my one from Dynon lasted about 25
hours, before it started "oscillating" with the boost pump off. Replaced
it, and the problem was fixed... for about 5 hours. Seeing the same issue
again.

My normal pressure is in the low 20's, but I saw some spikes after the first
year...ended up being a faulty ground connection. The crimp just was not
good enough. Worked fine ever since. 170 hours.

What did Dynon say about this? Being I have a Skyview I am concerned
about the reason for the oscillating.

I found that the VDO sensors used for oil and fuel pressure are 360004
and 360003 and are automotive senders. I checked with EI and found that
we are "locked in" to VDO sensors check for pressure. I did replaced egt
probes with EI and have had no further problems with egt probes burning
/disintegrating.

I have never had a problem with the fuel pressure or oil pressure
sensors, with Dynon or any other system. Dynon gets its ground through
the block bolted to the firewall, so it that is somehow isolated or not
making a good ground, that could possibly be causing it.

For something like a small round hole that you feed wires through, no

Ya, I was thinking something a bit larger. Something a pre-built
harness (made by some reputable avionics shop :) ) with a DB25 already
on could pass through without pulling all the wires out of the connector.
I know Vans recommends anything over 2 inch diameter be reinforced.

I just replaced my second GRT fuel sensor a few weeks ago. Both
sensors started giving erroneous high readings intermittently in my
Cheltons and on Vertical Power. Sandy at GRT says this is pretty
common with this sensor. It is a five minute job to swap sensors, but
it is a PITA when it starts giving you false alarms. I changed the
first one at approximately 175 hours, and this recent one at about
350. I can't remember the cost, but I think it was in the $35 to $45
range.

You can take the DB-25 connector shell apart and lay the cable alongside
and fit it through about a 3/4" - 1" hole. After getting it through,
just replace the shell.
