Installing [EI’s FP-5L] in my RV 6. . . owned an FP-5L 6 years ago in a Cessna 206 on floats in a commercial operation in Alaska. Getting every ounce of payload, and coming home across Cook Inlet with the Cessna gas gauges near or on empty, I spent a lot of time explaining the benefits of the Fuel flow gauge… and reassured my passengers there were 12 gallons of fuel on board.

Product Overview
How It Works
Prepare the Wires: Strip the ends of the wires to the appropriate length.
Crimp the Ferrules: Place the stripped wire ends into the ferrules and use the crimper to secure them.
Insert into OLC-2: Insert the crimped ferrule ends into the OLC-2 connector and tighten the set screws.
Crimp the ferrule.
Snip off any excess wire that may be protruding through the end of the ferrule terminal.
Pull on the crimped ferrule (3 to 4lbs) to ensure that it is firmly attached to the wire.
Insert the crimped ferrule into OLC-2 and tighten with a hex wrench until the hex wrench flexes (3 inches lbs). Repeat on the opposite end to complete your connection.
Pull on wires (3 to 4lbs) to ensure that your connections on both sides of the OLC-2 are firm and secure.

The installation was straightforward and quite easy. Reliability and accuracy far exceed the original [aircraft’s] oil pressure/temperature systems. Also, the price was about a third of the cost to replace the gauge cluster.

Love the situational awareness that the CGR-30 Combo gives me. Easy to read and understand displayed information.
Great service for Electronics International. Very helpful with what it needed for my aircraft. My mechanic has installed several of these units and highly recommended this for my aircraft.
I like being able to get a hold of a technical expert immediately when calling into the main EI phone number… The build quality of the sensors, display unit and EDC seem very good… I appreciate the business practices of EI and have had an EI R-1 Tachometer which has worked flawlessly for the past 20 years.

Great product. So easy to read compared to the originals.
This is the third EI instrument I am having installed in “Lillybelle .” I am impressed with the ease of operation, the affordability and the accuracy of each of these instruments. For years I trusted my life to 50+ year old gauges. Now I don’t have to. What a relief!
