Thanks Allen,
I got it.
I failed to add that I'm specifically interested in the transducer install
manual. The transducers are not addressed in the indicator head install
manual.

On a Lycoming, (and some TCM"S) it's usually not a real big deal to
install the transducers.
Typically, you replace one flex line with two shorter ones with the
transducer and a couple of AN fittings that equal the same length as
the old line.
Have mounted them semi-rigid to an engine mount, and have left them
hanging in space with the adel clamps or koroseal securing the fuel
lines securing the whole mess.
The "hardest" part of the job is running the wires from the transducer
to the gage. Don't remember anymore how many conductors there are, but
we always used a multi-conductor shielded wire run with the shielding
terminated to ground at one end only.
Is probably not a bid deal on an Aztruck, but some installs tend to
pick up interference from other systems (an external ignition
vibrator/exciter is a baddie) that mucks with your flow
numbers/totalizer features.
