KR> capacitance fuel level sender?

2013-07-19 Thread Jeff Scott
It looks like the same thing as the Westach capacitance probe which is what 
I've got in my KR. ?It has 5 holes for 3/16 screws and should come with a 
square mounting plate and gasket. ?You bond the aluminum plate to the side of 
the fuel tank where you want to mount the probe. ?The probe goes through a hole 
in the center of the plate and the base mounts to the flange using 5 3/16 
screws or bolts. ?I had problems with them weeping under the mounting gaskets 
off and on until I finally sealed the gaskets with some west epoxy. ?If you 
have an aluminum tank, you could weld or rivet the aluminum mounting flange to 
the tank. ?The picture at 
 shows the 
mounting flange (even though that particular unit is the older 12V version of 
the probe).

KR> Soapbox about furloughs

2013-07-19 Thread jon kimmel
Here I am sitting at home on furlough...which I take as a breech of
contract.  I enjoy having an extra day of leave to work on my flaps, but I
can't help feeling violated.  I am not allowed to campaign, but I think
every member of congress should be voted out at the next election for
allowing this to happen...regardless of how they voted.  They simply didn't
do their job...but they still get paid.

KR> Soapbox about furloughs

Jon

The lesson here is Don't trust the Govt.? I know how you feel about being 
betrayed.? That's how I feel about my free military health care for life if I 
gave them 20 years.? Now I pay.? Who do I sue?? 

Now for KR stuff.

I added AC and a ceiling fan to my garage this week so I can do layups while 
its 97 deg outside.
