From: "jf3sb" Thanks for all the feedback. The question is resolved and I'm now on to over-analyzing the next issue. Per Mark's suggestion, I mounted them at the Rotax-specified distance even though it put the probes on a curve. The "hose-clamps" fit fine without deformation and I'm no longer concerned about leaks or loosening. I suspect the header wrap is a good idea too for the reason Geoff mentions. I've got some but I think I'll do some full power runups before I put it on so I can get some before and after EGT data. They don't call it "Experimental" for nuthin...

These gauges are electric. If I replace it with a mechanical gauge it works fine...there are no joins in the connecting wires but I think I will have to replace them. anyone have any Ideas to cure the problem..The unit I installed recently is Electronic but it gives me the same trouble. ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 03:30:22 PM PST US From: "Chris Blackmore" Subject: Re: Zenith701801-List: Oil pressure gauge ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 06:24:32 PM PST US From: "Rene" Subject: RE: Zenith701801-List: Oil pressure gauge This may not apply, but on my RV-10 I had a bad ground connect and was having similar problems with my fuel pressure sender.

He made an excellent firewall back fuselage using stainless, rather than aluminum parts in hi-stress places and bearings where bushings were specified. He was getting ill when I knew him, and probably did not complete anything except this fus. I hope someone can use his carefully built fus and pick-up where Howard left-off. I know he would have wanted it this way Les -----Original Message----- From: Brant Miller [mailto:bikeflyer@verizon.net] Sent: Saturday, April 03, 2010 4:47 PM Subject: Howard Carter; Zenith STOL CH-701 I have just heard from Kathryn Carter, Howard's daughter, that he passed away on March 8. My condolences to his family and friends. Kathryn also told me that Howard was building a Zenith STOL CH-701 when he passed away. She would like to sell the partly built Zenith fuselage and aircraft tools/parts. If you are interested, please contact her directly at 707-338-8260.
