Rather than muddying up the other recent Kavlico posts, It would be nice to get a better picture of the failure rate of these sensors.
IF YOU HAD A FAILURE please post:
Purchase date of the sensor (roughly)
How long it had been in service, both years and hours of use
Oil pressure or fuel pressure application
What went wrong? Leak, functionality issue?
Edit: as Bill suggested; If fuel sensor leak, state FI or carbureted, and which hoses/other plumbing you used; Vans, TSFlightlines or other. The next time you fly on a hot day, check your fuel pressure 8-10 min after shutdown and report.
Trying to narrow down if this is an infant mortality thing or if there was a bad batch(es) or if they tend to die an early death.
Dynon/Garmin/Van's please fill us in with what you know about this.
