I am installing an electronic fuel injection system in my O-200 and use automotive pumps.
Yesterday, I fired up the fuel system for the first time (yea!) just for a test, before I hang the engine.
I got hold of a pressure gauge and Tee'd it with the Dynon Sender. I took resistance measurements, as I adjusted the pressure regulator, and wanted to see if the numbers jive.
My normal operating pressure will be around 45 psi
I plotted it out and it is linear.
Here is a sample:
Gauge (psi) Resistance (ohms)
0 8.7
5 16.0
20 64.8
30 82.9
40 105.7
45 119.0
50 131.7
60 150.9
70 171.2
80 188.4
Do these numbers look correct?
