Re: Oil Pressure Gauge Replacement
I’ve been quite happy with my Electronics International Oil Pressure/Temperature gauge. I had installed their Fuel Flow gauge first and when the time came to replace my failed oil temp gauge I went for both. Good quality and great customer support.

Re: Sensenich’s Ground-Adjustable Props
Me too!!!
Having choices on our 70 year old airplanes would be great. Any idea what this cost vs. for example $5k for a new McCaulley 8042 climb prop for the 8 bolt O300A engine?
