Fuel pressure

Postby George Kretschmann » Tue May 12, 2015 2:29 am

I noticed the other day on takeoff the right fuel pressure was about half as fast to move up as the left indicator for fuel pressure. Both engines at 2700 rpm electric pumps on and operating i suspect the two in one fuel gauge needs overhauling, any thoughts? Thanks George

If you are talking about original gauges, you are probably right assuming you didn't notice any power difference.

If they are any kind of electronic fuel monitoring, it could be the transducer.
