| Subject: | Re: RV4 - FLOWSCAN and ELECTRIC FUEL PUMP |
Sorry Wally, I use an EI FP-5 and the flow sensor is between the carb and outlet
line of the engine driven pump. My Facet pump is located in the center console
on the outletb line from the selector valve per the pre- 89' builders manual..

I am trying to figure out where to locate the fuel Flowscan 201B and the
electric fuel pump. I have read various comments about how much straight line
should be before and after the flow scan unit (6 inches) and I'm having trouble
finding a location to accommodate that. Also, I talked to a fellow RV builder
to day who said he learned at OSHKOSH this year that the Flowscan should be
located prior to the electric fuel pump.
What have others done?

| Subject: | Front Spinner Bulkhead |
After 14 years and 1300 hours of running my Sterba 68x72 prop on my -4,
I have decided to try something with a little more pitch. My new 68x78
Sterba arrived and off came the old prop . Surprise, the front spinner
bulkhead is cracked again. This has been an ongoing problem for me
despite making it fit like a glove with flox and resin a few years ago.
So I have a new one from Van's (9") and surprise (again), it doesn't fit
. This time, instead of being a little too small, it is a little too
big. Just enough to stop the spinner from going on all the way to the
edge of the rear bulkhead to line up the screw holes back there. Pushing
harder just won't do it. So my question is: Has anyone tried running
with no front bulkhead? Anyone know of a source for a slightly smaller
bulkhead? Any other ideas?
Thanks,
