Fuel Flow Transmitter Location

Thanks Kim!

On my set up (doesnt mean it is right) that line runs under the injector lines and there isn't much room. But looking at the bends in the injector lines, it almost looks like that hose should run right along side the fuel supply and return hoses. In that case, I think your configuration would seem to fit right in.

The fuel flow set up has not arrived yet. Once I get it and put the fittings on I will check the bend radius for the short hoses and see if it will all fit in there next to the other 2 fuel lines. I would have to check with the air filter on, but I dont think there would be enough room to locate it on top of the supply/return lines, I think it would have to be located right next to them.

Thanks for the input!

It did run on top of those 2 hoses and all 3 were under the injector lines. I did have to change the clock angle of the fitting on the throttle body to make a nice graceful curve. On our 337E the transducer was mounted on the intake runner above the#1 cylinder with adel clamps and then hoses to fit

I installed a JPI 790 with fuel flow a year ago. Here is how I mounted my flow transducer. I did have to use a 90 degree fitting after the transducer. With the fittings on, I kind of planned the location of the transducer and measured the distance for the flexible fuel lines. Had "Aircraft Hose Store" make the new shorter lines. Made sure things were mounted with clearance from the cowling.
