| Subject: | Low fuel lights on CJ6 |
Has anyone replaced the CJ stock low level fuel lights with USA style push
to test lights. Looking at the back of the CJ PTT Lights is an enclosed
module. Looks like a bit more complicated than re-hooking up a few wires
and adding a power wire.

| Subject: | JPI Fuel flow gage install |
Has anyone installed the JPI Fuel Flow Gage on a CJ6? I would think it
would go between the fuel pump and carburetor but that gets a littler crazy
trying to go from the CJ fittings to the standard pipe thread on the JPI.
Another thought is to come from the fuel filter as I was told that unit
uses the pipe thread. Any thoughts, pictures, parts lists or someone who
has installed this system that could provide some insight. Thanks

There is no provision in the stock CJ indicator lamps for a PTT circuit.
I have replaced all of these lamps (with two exceptions) with standard
MS PTT indicator lamps.
The exceptions are:
1. Landing gear position indicators. These are not individual lamps
and a PTT circuit and button has been incorporated to test all 6 lamps
in each box.
2. Low fuel indicators. The circuit design is not conducive to
replacement with the MS PTT lamp. The lamps are energized by a switch
in each fuel tank unit that connects the circuit to ground.
I simply added an additional ground circuit through a DPDT,
momentary contact switch which allows testing of front and rear, left or
right.

Walt, thanks for the info. When installing the DPDT momentary switch, I
assume you spiced into the ground circuit coming from the tank at each set
of lights?
