I installed a UMA 2 1/4" MP gauge in my KR when it was new. It's currently $159 Aircraft Spruce Part # 10-11250. I use it primarily for fine tuning the throttle settings at altitude. It's just another tool for monitoring the engine performance. Seems to me that I used a primer nozzle to tap

For the first few thousand feet above sea level you can subtract an inch and read the vacuum as manifold pressure but when the throttle is fully open, as it always is above 8000 or so, the vacuum gauge stays at zero. No useful information there. At lower altitudes yes, it can be used as a measure

Off and on I've looked at the Stewart Warner gauge, 2.25 diameter. It's my current choice unless I come across something better. Van's sells one that looks better (appearance), for about 30% more than the SW. But reliability reports on it and other Van's-branded & sold instruments are not genera

I'm getting close, I might be able to make the next gathering. right now I have another question. I am installing a manifold pressure gage and would like some suggestions for locating the source. I have the HAPI intake ducts with an aerocarb. I am considering welding (or brazing) a half coup

Time to poll the collective wisdom of the list again! I have a Revmaster 2100 with ram air. The gauge in the airplane ranges 10-50 inches. I'm doing a panel upgrade right now and am wondering if I should change this gauge to perhaps 0-30 inches or some other range while I have the chance? Wh

Hi guys For those looking for a differential pressure guage, I have got an "RS" catalogue at work in which I remember seeing a really tiny differential pressure instrument. It looks like a plastic casting with two "nozzles to attach the two sources of pressure. These are electrical instruments w
