  1. The long range tanks are great if you need the range. It is a considerable amount of work to put in. They are integral (wet wing) tanks. It is not something you can do yourself so you will be paying a shop to do it. There aren't a lot of parts but there is a lot of labor. If done right they are good. If not then you will be chasing leaks all the time. Expect to pay several thousand. It requires an STC and a mechanic who really knows what he is doing.
  2. Mags are definite possibility. Slick recently released a Service Bulletin concerning a bad batch of points and mags. I personally ran into this a month ago on a Mooney TLS I rebuilt the mags on and ended up having issues with the points in less than 100 hours. One mag quit all together and the other barely ran. Look at Champion / Slick Service Bulletin 1-12. I believe there is even a warranty for the parts if you still have the box with the lot number on it, if it applies.
  3. My Hoskins fuel flow isn't displaying the fuel flow. It just reads "2222". The JPI displays fine from the same transducer. There doesnt appear to be any troubleshooting to the display in the manual. It looks Instrument tech in Texas deals with these FT 101A displays. Has anyone else had any issues like this? Has anyone used Instrument Tech for repairs?
