    SV to garmin 400W..?

    Ryan You should read that as Garmin 400/500 series units-- 400 = Gps only (no NAV, ie VOR info) 420 = Gps plus Com 430 & 430W = Gps + Com +Nav, same goes for 500 series :) Jake J

    Fuel Level Readings

    Hugh You have an RV ? Their float senders can't measure the last lot of fuel so Dynon only gets what the float gives, just add the last amount to the Dynon. FWIW it's the first 10 to 20 litres that are real important to me ;D Jake J

    EGT Sensor Problem

    Murray I really don't think you have 'fried' them - that many just don't fail at the same time, I've only ever replace 1 x Egt & no CHT probes & I've installed a lot of them ;) Flexing the bundle of EGT/CHT cables can, & most likely will, result in the symptoms you're seeing. What I do with...

    Autopilot install

    Just a few pointers to installing any autopilot system, this is what I do  - 1. level the aircraft, on ground, and check that skid ball is in centre - 'adjust' if necessary. 2. Go fly & check that skid ball is centred at normal cruise power settings - if not centred then use a rudder trim/tab...

    How can I show fuel added in flight from aux tanks

    Karl 1. Tell the Fuel Computer the total amount on board - this is different from Fuel Level 2. Yes, the Fuel Level gauges will see the change 3. yes, but the above basically covers it all HTH Jake J
