No fuel flow indication - FT-60 sensor.
Today I did the carb snyc runs. Rotax came up to temperature and balancing went well. Good WOT runups too. All good except fuel flow reading was zero. The K factor was set at 96000, on recommendation of early flyers.
Tried reducing the K factor to 50000, no change.
Only thing I can think of is that I had forgotten to plug in the fuel pump fuse. Fuel was obviously flowing as engine was running fine. Could it be that the fuel flow sensor (red cube) gets its power through the pump circuit?
That's the only thing I can think of, since I had fuel flow indications on earlier engine runs.
