    Since the firewall is made of Gal steel, what have people been using to paint it with? do you need to etch it? Chris Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=291394#291394

    Chris- I covered both sides with fire resistant sound insulation. You can't burn the stuff with a propane torch.

    Frank, I think that I can speak for Zodiac 601XL/650 community in thanking you for your video presentation. AS previously mentioned, this presentation (in lay-man's terms) will bring peace of mind to us the builders, our spouses, and anyone else who gives a hoot! Also, it will bring the 601/650's values back to where they should be.

    Subject: Re: Fuel Gauges
    List, My experience with the fuel gauges no matter which brand it is - If it is float operated and mounted on or near the inboard end of the tanks the float will rest against the top of the tank at about 7.5 ~ 8 gallons. This is due to the dihedral of the wing. The outboard end of the tank is higher than the float when it is jammed against the top of the tank. I am using the Dynon D-180 and after about 8 gallons you will notice on filling further the output of the gauge never changes. I set my tanks to read 7 gallons when full and they stay on seven until it gets below that. They are extremely accurate from seven down. The last 30 min. is the most important. Most gauges are only accurate when reading empty. Hope this helps bobby - 601 XL - Fl
