  1. Yeah took them off my site too. Looks like we can finally close this thread, bummer.
  2. Hahah Mine too I have stopped coding customers on to track until I have one on hand been burned too many times. I really hope it happens.
  3. You all have covered just about everything. JPI is required to set the alarm limits a the exact # that is listed in the POH and has no flexibility to change this. This is a common occurrence and even more so in the big Conti's in regards to fuel flow. Many people have their max fuel flow set to 10% of rated HP to keep things cool, this sets off a red alarm at full rich full power. I have tried to get this resolved for a few customers but its a no go. A small annoyance for the convince and pin point accuracy of these engine monitors.
  4. Yes thank you I had that backwards and made the edit
  5. I know on my 310 the engine driven fuel pumps draw more fuel than is actually used by the engine and the excess is returned to the tanks. I think all big Conti's are the same? May be a possibility the the factory Mooney fuel line, selector and rest of the system is not capable of flowing 28GPH plus the excess? The main fuel line for each engine in my 310 with the same engines are a lot bigger than any line I have seen in a Mooney. I bet Rocket has the answer and if they say the Mooney system is capable of flowing the increased fuel then I would have your adjustments looked at again. If I cranked mine to the stops I would have about 40 GPH. Just some thoughts.......
  6. I flew my J for 10 years and about 1200hrs here are the majors, just about everything. It had 1400 on the engine and about 3700 on the airframe when I bought it. Engine, Prop x2, both mags x2, resealed 1 tank, 2 starters, 1 Vac Pump, stall warning switch, 1 alternator, Lasar nose truss, gear pucks, Paint, interior and a bunch of little stuff like electrical gremlins, tires, brakes ect. Totally worth it I loved my time in that plane!
  7. I have 2 IO-550-A's in my C310R and have the Sea Level full power FF set to 31 GPH. It gives you the option of more cooling on those hot days that I see in Vegas. If you need max power just pull it back to 27-28. From all my buddies flying the big Conti's it seems that FF of 10% max rated HP works well for cooling.
  8. Definitely take your plane. I flew my J form Vegas to Tampa all the time now I do the same in my 310 almost once per month. It makes no financial sense but especially now its much more enjoyable, beautiful and calming as log as you are not on a tight schedule. Have fun!
  9. Thanks! I am here to help if needed. www.wolfaviationsales.com
  10. Still no word form BK . I am waiting up to 9 weeks to get the approved kits for Cessna's & Pipers.
  11. Well sold out of stock in 5 hrs. I will have more in 2 weeks. Uavionix told me they will be shipping all the pre orders in the next few weeks so if you have ordered them you should get them soon.
  12. Found it for ya. See link Section 8 page 47: https://www.jpinstruments.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/PG-EDM-730_830-Rev-A-02-JULY-2009.pdf
  13. Hi - there is a simple calibration in the pilots guide. It will take a few flight to get it right but it is east. Take a look its listed in the manifold pressure section.
  14. Awesome! Please send his info my way.
  15. Niko - I am really sorry about the quality of your install. I believe I recommended them to you and feel responsible for that. I am going to talk to Len the owner, all of those items are not acceptable especially for a simple engine monitor install. If that is the quality of work they do I can not continue to recommend them.
  16. I am currently working with a few independent A&P's on the field to maintain my plane only because I can't afford the plane being down for any longer then needed right now. PM me and I can pass some contact info to you
  17. Looks like the sharp Mooneyspacers figured this one out! I have not been here in a few weeks due to work and flying schedules, miss you all
  18. Unfortunately this is true. I have 6 autopilots on order for other airframes and Have been quoted 6-9 weeks 9 being the norm. Frustrating that such a great product is being stifled by bad management.
  19. Ouch . Well I'm still around If you need anything else! Enjoy that Rocket, I have always wanted to fly one...
  20. Thank you guys I really appreciate the support! Sanjeev
  21. JPI is officially back open however they are working at 50% staff with employees working one day on / one day off so there will be delays. The good news is Donna at JPI has been very responsive to me and my pending orders that got delayed due to COVID. They are doing their best but there will be some longer lead times, I thing 14-20 days for the certified replacements 900, 930, 960 is realistic. Thank you all for the support.. I no longer fly a Mooney but feel the MOONEY LOVE! Sanjeev
  22. Hello and thanks for the nice PIREP Ross. Based on my interactions with JPI the last few weeks they are shipping the stocked units: 730, 830, 790's. They have not been answering the phone but I am able to place orders via Email and get a response within 1-2 business days. The 900, 930, 960 units that are certified replacements for factory gauges are running longer. JPI has to build and program each one of them per the specific Aircrafts POH and I don't believe all the programers are back to work. They are taking orders and the last one I put through for a Mooneyspacer I was quoted 14-20 business days. They are not up to full capacity but they are working with me so its looking good. Fly safe everyone!!
