Shadin Fuel flow

Jim:

Given the choice, I think a multiprobe engine analyzer is a more useful
investment, particularly in a twin. It's amazing watching those CHT's climb
on a hot summer day, where a single probe probably wouldn't show any
potential problems. It also allows for more accurate leaning, and tells
exactly which plug is having a problem when one gets fouled.

I have a Shadin fuel flow as well as an engine analyzer, and really believe
that for around the same amount of money the analyzer is much more useful.

Good luck.

Thanks Jim,
I've got one on the way but that project will take a little longer.

It must be too late now, but you could have used the same setup as I
did: a JPI EDM-760 with its optional fuel flow sensors. It talks to
the GPS of course and doesn't take up an additional instrument slot.

As a matter of fact the 760 that I have coming is the fuel flow model... do
you know if it will work with the Shadin transducers? The 760 literature
says it works with "several types of Shadin transducers"

The 760 installation manual lists "Shadin PN 680501X / 680600X".
(But why not buy the JPI bundled fuel flow widgets then?)

Thanks, I found the K factor setting that the JPI requires to use the Shadin
transducers. It shouldn't be a problem. Since the Shadin will be replacing
my primary FF I'll use the Shadin transducers. The fact that the JPI is set
up for fuel flow is really irrelevant to me, but as long as I'm running
wiring, I will use the feature if I don't have to shell out extra for their
transducers.

Who did you ask at Shadin and what do you need?
