  1. With STC and “stuff” it is more like $1.5AMU’s...
  2. ARI cowl closure purchased today. Cost point where I/we needed to be vs. the better solution in Sabre’s cowl. We will have prop off at annual for re-seal/etc so time was right to do cowl closure. Got a refurbed DG with heading bug $.8 AMU’s and the ARI for $1.5AMU’s so about the price of a G5 for the two. I/We will have a cowl plug and a laser lower cowl closure available in February...PM me if interested.
  3. Triflow? Keep a can of compressed air. That $%^& is amazing....
  4. Bought a refurbished DG today. The cost of the G5 was not worth it. Triple the price for the glass. NOPE. ARI cowl mod should give a tad more speed and a lot cleaner look. Dollars better spent.
  5. Not picking up what you are laying down? What “Indicator” is replaced by G5?
  6. Yes. I have the drawing that Brown provided. Hoping someone else already did the “work”. We have a processing DG that is annoying on a 2 hour flight. Can buy a refurbished unit for $800 vs. more than triple that for the G5 w/required accessories installed. Probably should do the refurbed unit for cost savings ease of install (swap). Spend the savings on an ARI cowl closure...
  7. Anyone actually connected their G5 DG to the Accu-Flite? How does it work? Will Garmin (possibly) include Brittain as authorized auto-pilot for use with G5? Thoughts? Drawbacks?
  8. Yup never good with Ebonics. Yes Blocking is awesome for West Coast Emasculated syssup....Use it. It’s made for you.
  9. Hey Chuckster, Speaking of not putting your whole name in your info. Kind of the pot calling the kettle black, eh? Rhetorical.
  10. Good stuff Bob. Felt a little deja vu. How pray tell do you handle that thimble full of water in the recess of the properly sealed properly serviced gasketed fuel cap? Do you also carry a can of compressed air to spray that thimble full of water from each cap recess?
  11. New day. Yup still funny.
  12. Chuckles that is a tough one. I am going to go with C or maybe T for Trigger. Wait let me blow a little compressed air on “it”. Yeah, that is much better.
  13. Doubling down. Nice. HI-Larious. Gotta go and ponder my replies on thousands of threads including the “former me”...
  14. Xcrmckenna: Here is my question to your question. Was not my first sentence in this thread a contribution? I stated that you don’t need an exterior cap if you change your existing fitted fuel caps four O-Rings AND make sure the caps are not cocked when replaced. You don’t obviously like this reply. Man if you want to haul around compressed air to blow out the thimble of water in the cap recess....Knock yourself out brother. I find it funny. For that you attack me and pre-suppose a lot of B.S.? Weak magic.
  15. You have been warned....Ominous music. Tread lightly...One guy needed shunning and it wasn’t a financial supporter. Two rules on MooneySpace. Really more like guidelines as a goofy thread on covers for fuel caps breaks one of them: Individual attacks. The other is No politics. Mild profanity is also frowned upon as there are a lot of Engineers and Professionals that become offended by words. Regardless, My Name is Nobody is NOT the guy you want to follow/quote etc...It will get the “legit” real members in the church of Mooneyspace ruffled.
  16. Your reply to me vs. your reply to Robert Gary says more about you than me. Pretty funny. Strange not Ha Ha.
  17. No question I have a thin skin. THAT is a know entity, right? I think the kids are darling. I shot a photo of my “at home” kids, now sadly only one remains not as a slight, but to have fun. Was that mean? I was a supporter until the other “get the ads” option came up. I just ignore them, unless it’s...Oh never mind. I obviously enjoy Mooneyspace, but equally obvious is that I like to debate and debating is taking an opposing viewpoint. When somebody calls me old and set in my ways they are going to get both barrels. I am not trying to win hearts and minds with FuelLevel. Just callin’ it like I see it... Regardless I enjoy your posts ALWAYS and my comments to you about you “at you” are just words. Easily ignored (by most here). I will continue to “stick it” where the sun don’t shine...(in my two tanks)
  18. Hey Brown: Just to be clear an internet troll is a person that starts quarrels or upsets people by distracting, sowing discord, or by posting inflammatory digressive or extraneous off-topic messages. I actually own a Mooney and replied here in good faith to a topic. (See my original post) I was then trolled by Fuellevel and now I was trolled by you regarding the adware. My comments, while giving back what I received in being called an: old, stodgy refuser of accepting new technology kinda guy by fuellevel who then throws out a Rodney King line and shows photos of two cute young girls that may or may not be his. You may not like my message-response to his product and communication of value to stated “problem”. I will again say: Sorry. Not sorry. My summary: Spending $1600 for two OEM fuel senders in a vintage Mooney and then paying to install/calibrate them is NOT a good/sound value to this Vintage M20E owner as stated. In fact I would rather put several thousand dollar new dangled wingtips with wiz bang lighting than these. I could buy a nice O&U or a pointer for that money. If you run your plane out of gas and survive or don’t survive an off field landing I will call you an idiot. Do the same of me...
  19. There are two ways to view Mooneyspace. WITH or WITHOUT adds. To you as well I will say: Sorry. Not sorry.
  20. I agree, but at $790x2 for senders on M20E I won’t ever be assisting with their future college tuition...
  21. Not a real debate. One guy is trying to sell something (poorly) and another doesn’t want to run his plane out of fuel...but is repeatedly told he is wrong. My mind not changed here. YMMV.
  22. Epiphany. Now I remember you rolling this same line out before. Been a while, but now I remember your slow roll. I have certified gauges that read quite well in my plane. I don’t rely solely on my totalizer. I rely on a known start 52 gallons that is visually inspected at launch. We had the senders recalibrated by Paul B. With tank re-seal and they have never worked better. I look at tanks and confirm/record burn/used on totalizer while in flight. I have ZERO concerns about running my plane out of fuel. Sticks confirm that totalizer is very accurate with fuel remaining prior to fill and launch. I will continue to use my stick as I have for the last 15 years. One thing is certain. Should I ever need to replace my senders your company wouldn’t be on the list of consideration for purchase. That should sell you a bunch...Lack of careful thought or reflection...Classic.
  23. You completely misunderstand my point, or perhaps your marketing again? My point is not “religion” although flying is about doing things that work again and again. I sump my tanks after I fly to confirm I have what I thought I have on BOTH of my fuel flow readings (EI and G3). The EI provides a fuel used and remaining. Of course this depends on using accurate numbers to begin with. We primarily store our plane with tanks FULL so no stick is needed, just a visual inspection with tank sumping. My totalizer is within a gallon on fuel used based on post flight sumping prior to filling tanks. How much is your product? If it is more than a free paint stick it has zero value to me as stated. Very ominous on the last sentence with “issue” as closer. Data? Examples? Again, how and what is the value of your product to me? I am speaking of MY personal reference based on a single tank. Your follow-up was what really set me off and your condescending judge mental words. Your “You still use a stick” remark was immediately after I posted what was asked for. No man we are not going to be Rodney Kinging it...
