Hi Carlos,
It would be a pleasure to see you here in Zurich.
Here are the Finish and FWF part lists. The two FWF lists are fresh
from Van's last week - one with the quadrant and the other with standard
engine control styles.

For your wire sizes, take a look in AC 43-13. they have wire sizing charts
in there according to length, current and Voltage.

| Subject: | FYI - an updated manual for Precision Airmotive's Fuel Injection |
Servo is available
I just discovered that that an updated Installation and Spec manual for
the Siverhawk EX-5V A1 servo kit is posted on the Airmotive site. It's
dated Sept 14, 2011 (just after my first flight). Here's a link to the doc:
http://www.precisionairmotive.com/Publications/25-020_a.pdf
This is the fuel servo that came with my Van's ordered IO540. The
original manual was dated Dec 5, 2003. There are significant update -
not necessarily new news but certainly more useful information.

| Subject: | Re: Fuel tank leak testing |
...or you could make a simple u-tube manometer by mounting a long
(several feet) loop of transparent plastic tubing on a piece of board
having some sort of stand to hold it close to vertical and putting some
(food-dyed) water in the loop. Connect one end of the loop to the tank,
pressurize the tank to a foot or so of water (distance between meniscii
- the surfaces of the water in the tube), then measure and record the
distance between the meniscii to get the pressure. Leave a thermometer
in contact with the tank to get the temperature and record that, too.
Make a series of measurements every few hours through a couple of
temperature cycles (days, usually).
Temperature must be absolute temperature - add 273.15 to a Celsius
temperature to get absolute temperature in Kelvins or 491.7 to
Fahrenheit temperature to get absolute temperature in degrees Rankine).
The pressure can be corrected using the local altimeter setting, but
this is usually of less concern.
Pressure divided by temperature (P/T) "should" be constant if there are
no leaks. Measure and record every few hours to get a feeling for the
uncertainty in P/T. For me it was negligible (and I was lucky - Van's
tanks did not leak -yet :-) ). Any decrease in P/T gives you a
quantitative measure of the leak rate (plus error). Any increase is due
to measurement error. If you are doing reasonably precise measurements
(measuring the distance between meniscii as precisely as you eyeballs
allow), you will see that P/T will NOT be perfectly constant. No biggie.
The biggest source of error comes if the temperature swings a lot during
your measurement series - the tank will not be at the same temperature
everywhere, and it's hard -no, impossible -to put your thermometer where
the temperature you measure is always the same as the temperature of
the air in the tank. Leave the thermometer in one location. With a set
of measurements over two or more temperature cycles, you can plot P/T
vs time and draw a line through the points to get the leak rate.
"Eyeballing" the line should be more than adequate, or you can do a
least-square fit using Excel or similar tool if you are truly
compulsive.
If you do have a leak, the bubble test will find it for you - just hope
that it's in one of your connections and not in the tank itself!
Hope this is useful.

Injection Servo is available
I "assume" you are aware of AD 2009-02-03 Precision Airmotive LLC and
Bendix: Amendment 39-15793 that concerns the security of the large plug
in the side of the servo. Given your servo is identical to the RSA-5
series other than the EX in the P/N and the timing of when your
engine/servo would have been supplied, I'd be sure to check this one.
(c) This AD applies to the following reciprocating engines with a
Precision Airmotive LLC, RSA-5 or RSA-10 series, or Bendix, RSA-5 or
RSA-10 series, fuel injection servo, having a servo plug gasket, part
number (P/N) 365533, that was installed under the fuel injection servo
plug, P/N 383493, on or after August 22, 2006:
(1) Lycoming Engines IO, (L)IO, TIO, (L)TIO, AEIO, AIO, IGO, IVO, and
HIO series reciprocating engines.
Always good to check for updated manuals, and for ADs on certified
equivalent parts, just to ensure there isn't a problem that could affect
your plane regardless of the EAA arguments about ADs.

If possible please measure the inside distance between the right and left
lap belt attach points in the rear right seat. I am considering an extended
range tank for that location and want to make sure the custom tank will fit.
I plan on venting the tank through a static port part on the right side and
plumbing the tank outlet into the right main tank.

You assumed correctly. In fact, the AD came out well before I was even
close to flying. Turned out that my servo had already had the correct
gasket or whatever installed. As I recall, the good units had an
identifying mark engraved on the plug.
Going back to the updated manual, in the appendices, it includes some
great info on setting up the idle and starting procedures. They may
have been part of the older manual but I don't have them anymore if they
were.
Thanks
Bill

| Subject: | Aux fuel tank (was measurement request) |
It's almost exactly 18 inches.
If anyone is interested, I have a very nice aux fuel tank that was designed
for a Lancair but would fit nicely in the back seat area of a 10. It holds
about 65 gallons. I don't need much for it.

Didn't someone recently post about a custom tank in the baggage area
right under the rear seat backs with around 12-13 gal capacity? Unless
going across a big pond, don't know how big the need is to carry more
than 70-75 gal for honest 5 hr range.

Yeah, you'd have to have a pretty special mission. This one was built for
an ocean crossing but never used since the builder realized he couldn't put
a semi-rigid tank in a pressurized cabin.

I will be installing the Dynon heated pitot/AOA. They recommend either
the Gretz or SafeAir. While the Gretz is more than double the price, I'm
sitting on the fence. Anyone have strong reasons for one over the other?
