Jeev Posted May 26, 2020 Report Share Posted May 26, 2020 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!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeev Posted May 28, 2020 Report Share Posted May 28, 2020 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 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carusoam Posted May 29, 2020 Report Share Posted May 29, 2020 Well.... That looks like a sensor... Looks like it sits in oil, by the crush washer on it... it is either a temp or press sensor... Let’s see what one looks like at AS... https://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalog/inpages/rochoiltemp.php?gclid=Cj0KCQjwwr32BRD4ARIsAAJNf_0m_wpA65AAADExCQ6h2M_zfYYl4lcfDgHKscaJIAtCl8aBYqqWGjkaAtQTEALw_wcB Be sure to use the exact part number on your device before ordering the wrong part... PP adding details to the conversation for KH... Best regards, -a- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khedrei Posted May 29, 2020 Report Share Posted May 29, 2020 I can’t really see a part number but it is an oil temp sensor from my 231. I have a feeling it won’t help this situation but I thought I would try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carusoam Posted May 29, 2020 Report Share Posted May 29, 2020 KH, it’s a Rochester oil temp probe in your pic... the part number is all the numbers stamped on the side... Not too expensive either... the same thing for the O is 2X in price... and not available anywhere... There is always confusion between P & T oil sensors... they look very similar to each other... OilT uses a thermistor in place of a Thermocouple... A TC is much easier to recognize by its colored wire insulation...
