    Subject: Re: Nose Wheel Noise
    Hey Mike, I would suspect the big washers that sit on top of the fork. Others have said that when they wear in, the left right torq needs to be reset, so I went ahead and polished the mating surfaces and greased them before installing on Wes's plane and setting the torq -- haven't had any squeak but still checked and reset torq after about a year of flying.

    Has any one had one of these fail? usual install is with GRT EIS 6000. When it fails, does it sense zero for high scale? mine has become flaky with a few occasions of slightly high pressure followed by a duration of flight normal range. I have the replacement in the spare parts box in the baggage area but waiting to install. Total time is 429.

    I am at home and can't confirm the part number, but I recently replaced my fuel pressure sender for the second time after about 370 hours. The first one started acting flaky at about 170 hours. Both times the symptoms were occasional spikes of very high fuel pressure. GRT tells me this is common and sent me a replacement right away, both times. Changing the sender takes about five minutes and does not require "breaking" any fuel lines if installed using the stock Van's manifold. I don't remember the cost, but seem to remember it was in the $40 range. Maybe less. -------- David Maib RV-10 #40559 Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=341996#341996

    Sounds like mine; we will see how long it goes. The part number is available online for about $29 shipped. It is a German part distributed in USA by JEGS a car "extras" site. ----- Original Message ----- From: <dmaib@me.com> Sent: Friday, June 03, 2011 7:07 PM Subject: RV10-List: Re: fuel pressure sender VDO360003 > > I am at home and can't confirm the part number, but I recently replaced my > fuel pressure sender for the second time after about 370 hours.

    Dave, Thanks for the pictures. It's always nice to get the visual! Today, it was front floors but the baggage/rear floors are around the corner. I'm excited to get to the conduit.
