I am on my second; the first lasted about 500 hours; the second has
lasted about 50 hours. They begin to fail by showing fuel pressures
that are abnormally high intermittently. Anyone else has a similar
problem?

I used SB625-7 in ribs 1-11. I used SB500-6 in ribs 12-15. Once I dropped roll
servo wiring in right wing and pitot heat/stall warning wiring in left wing, size
can be reduced. I have DW hid's and Whelen strobes. I can barely hear hid's
start up at idle and no noise after 15 seconds. No noise heard from strobes
unless engine is off. No noise from anything else. Yes, I used airframe ground
for everything. All my wires bundled tight with wire ties and no condiut. I
did not want wires vibrating inside of flammable plastic tubing or not having
cooling air across wire bundle. Wires are insulated with Tefzel for a reason.
I installed one spare 18 ga wire per wing. We have removable wing root fairings,
tips and insp panels in case I need to run a new wire.

Sounds like GRT ought to sell the industrial one only with new EIS
shipments. Cheap purchase just means that you get to change them frequently.

They use them in race cars, too...

Don't tell them it's for an airplane, however.

Subject: | Measurements Needed - Throttle/Prop/Mixture (Vernier) |
Hi Everyone,
I'm having some custom length vernier cables manufactured by McFarlane and
need some basic measurements from Vans stock cables before I can proceed.
Does anyone have a set of cables that are not installed and who can make
some measurements for me? I had no idea it was this complex of a process.
Attached to this message is the McFarlane spec sheet for their cables.
Once I get the basic measurements from a stock set of cables, I can figure
out the rest. I'll be happy to share all the dimensions for the future
builders so they don't have to go through the process.
Thanks in advance for your help!
Phil

I know the length I need. It is the other intermediate measurements on the document
that are needed.

One caution: I bought the stock cables with the Firewall Forward kit, and they
were not long enough to route as shown in the plans. I made them fit, but it
is a little tighter than I would have liked. And I think I'm not the only one
who has had this problem.

That's exactly the reason I'm getting custom length cables made.

I talked with Sandy and Gregg at GRT yesterday; there is a way to determine
whether it is the sensor good or bad with the top cowl off. Mine, however,
is intermittent, I am going to try and clean the terminals to determine
whether my problems currently could be connections. The choices are two: (1)
keep replacing the cheap sensor (I carry an extra with me) or (2) install
the robust one which requires slight changes to the wiring. I will make a
decision on it in a month or so; IIRC the three wires from it go to power,
ground and the sensor. Since the current sensor already has a 4.8V power
interconnection with the sensor line it must be removed which for me means
removing some panel units to find and cut the offending wire.
