He connected it to his fuel return line, and had a Serbian (?!?) technology firm build him a reader with a small LCD that he mounted in his cockpit (it was an Evo).<BR/><BR/>I'm on the lookout for the fuel sensor on Ebay...Buzzcuthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04842955268141684744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2223359068667078729.post-9164775653731240202008-06-16T18:58:00.000-07:002008-06-16T18:58:00.000-07:00Buzz- the same Federal Handbook with the phase sep...Buzz- the same Federal Handbook with the phase separation test and the seasonal blends also has in the very back a proceedure for testing conductivity tests. Sorry- i did not go back and look at it or compare the meter specs to the expected test range. Thanks for the link to the meter- I will have to give it a look in the future.<BR/><BR/>By the way- when I do phase separation tests I dump it into my FFV tank (in E85)to get rid of it. It should also be ok to do limited samples into E30 also.<BR/><BR/>AlcoholAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
