Steve, that's not my understanding, all MGL instr= uments can read injector pulses. chapter 10.6 of user manual shows connecti= ng direct to injectors, connect primary to flow1, secondary to flow2 to tak= e care of correct reading through staging.

I actually used a f= low sender but am considering going to injector reading as for some reason = my flow sender is erratic and very sensitive to bubbles.

Unfortunately our Dynon Skyview is the same.
