  1. Where did you send your manifold pressure gauge to be repaired?

    Thanks

  2. You should consider checking the pressure output of the mechanical fuel pump with another pressure gauge before you go through the removal and replacement. Just to make sure its the true issue.
  3. Thank you for the update. I think I will give them a try this winter.
  4. I guess it has changed hands then. Website appears up to date anyway.
  5. Hello Folks, I am looking for a Mooney familiar shop for an annual due this winter. Any reports on AGL in NC? Are they still a Mooney shop? It seems like the shop has been sold or under new management? Anyway if anyone has had service done there lately please let me know your experience. Thanks!
  6. There is a good MX shop at W78 which is close to GSO. They could probably help you out.
  7. My bird has factory MP/FP instead of FF. Interesting. Of course mine is a 75F.... http://www.aerospacelogic.com/index.php?dispatch=products.view&product_id=232 That is the Fuel Flow/MP version.
  8. I don't recall, you can download the installation manual and see. The display brightness adjustable thru a menu.
  9. Mine went bad too, unable to get it overhauled (the shop tried 3 times but it never worked right) or replaced. I ended up going with this. Works great, installed myself and got a sign-off from my mechanic. http://www.aerospacelogic.com/index.php?dispatch=products.view&product_id=106 I used a reducer plate on the original instrument hole and this new one fits just fine. Mounted senders on the firewall w aluminum angle. Was a fairly simple job.(the dimmer knob described in install manual, it's unnecessary.)
  10. Watch the Kitplanes Magazine Channel on Youtube "Metal Magic" Some good starter tips from an expert. There is a whole series in there, don't just stop at this linked one. Order this for practice: https://store.vansaircraft.com/rv-control-surface-training-project-rv-training-project-1.html Build it and then disasmble it by removing the rivets, and build it agian. You are doing good when you can remove a rivet and NOT enlarge the hole while doing so.
  11. A cellphone and a credit card are all you need. I don't see the practicality of flying around a bunch of tools and parts all the time. Besides whatever part you need or tool you need will be the one you didn't have.
  12. I ended up replacing my old FP/MP combo gauge with this. (For anyone looking for another option out there...) http://www.aerospacelogic.com/index.php?dispatch=products.view&product_id=106 PIREP: Has been working great for quite sometime now. / Used a reducer plate and the gauge fit in the same hole as the old larger MP/FP gauge.
  13. I don't believe there is going to be a parts problem for the KX-155. They are manufacturing new LED displays for them, so that says to me there will be plenty of support for quite sometime. My old KX-155 (which I just had overhauled with new display) will probably outlive the Garmin I have as #1 NAV/COMM in fact. Look at all the avionics that has come and gone over the years while the KX-155 keeps chugging along doing its job nicely.
  14. New LED Display plus overhaul was $2,496.00. If you all you need it is a new display it would be somewhat less of course. I realize that is not cheap, but it is an excellent radio and I just slid it back into the panel and I was back in business vs downtime / labor installing another type. Just give them a call and discuss. I found them to be great to work with.
