| Subject: | Fuel servo O-ring |
I have a Bendix RSA-5AD1 fuel servo and need to replace the outlet O-ring. Does
anyone out there have a correct part number and suggested source?

| Subject: | More on the red cube... |
Has anyone with experience mounting the red cube between the servo and spider hanging
free inline (no bracket, just suspended in the hose line)? This looks like
it will take 45 deg fittings on the cube and it will hang at about a 45 deg
uphill flow position. Seems like this is simplest way to go...

I'd be worried about engine vibration on an unsupported hose assembly
making the readings inaccurate.
Just thinking out loud.

I initially had mine like you're describing. Accuracy was fine but after a
premature failure (400 hrs?) I mounted it to a bracket and it's been
good for 1000+. I believe there's a note about orienting the wires
upwards, not sure if that means straight up or mainly up.
FWIW, EI replaced my cube no questions asked.

The simplest way to go is to mount it in the tunnel, per plans. Perfectly
accurate there (at least with my IO-540 w/ a standard FI system).

I did that with a Floscan sensor. Put a 45 degree fitting in the fuel servo and
wrapped the sensor and fuel line with fire sleeve. Works great. It should stay
cooler than if mounted to the engine.

Remaining cool is not an issue with fuel flow sending units. The negative
to mounting in the tunnel is that you are between fuel pumps, and with the
boost pump off, the fuel is being sucked under negative pressure to the
mechanical pump. The sending units are designed to operate under positive
pressure. Best locations are either between mechanical pump and servo or
between servo and spider. The former is required by the STC for type
certificated aircraft, the latter most common on experimental. The unit is
best suspended on a bracket attached to the engine, so that vibrations are
in sync with the engine. If you are concerned about heat, mount it under
the intake manifold, and cover it with fireshield.

One on top of our fiberglass cabin cover and one under the tunnel. When I have
reception issues with one, I switch to the other. I'd do it all the same again.

Same here Rob, have not been off more than .5 gallon.
