I finally discoovered the cause&nbsp; of my intermittent low fuel pressure
indications. The linkage between the shut of handle and the valve were worn
to the extent that when fuel was selected on&nbsp;with the cockpit selecotr
handle the fuel &nbsp;valve itself &nbsp;was not fully open. A LAME friend
advises&nbsp;that the one fitted to my aircraft&nbsp;is a terrible design
and very "home made".<BR><BR>What sort of fuel shut off have people
installed in their 320? Is the standard Lancair issue good enough? Where is
this mounted? I have a selector on the passenger side linked by a mechanical
arm to the valve on the back of the firewall. It is this
"remote"&nbsp;linkage that has caused the problem.<BR><BR>--<BR>Gerard O
