Hello to = all,

My engine monitoring system is a Vision = Microsystems (VM) EPI 800 and worked
well for the last eight = years =96 and still works fine.

I'm thinking of = a replacement system =96 in case of a major failure of the actual = system.

My recent research showed that most of = the installed sensors are compatible with the
EMS used = today.

Fuelprobe = compatibility?
Does anybody knows about the compatibility = of the VM Fuel probes? I have two of them
installed in the = wings. A calibration was done back in 2002 to respect of the Fueltank = geometry=85

Which system to = for?
What are y<our experiences with JPI, Dynon and = others?

Any hints and thoughts are welcome, = thank you.

Patrick, LNC2, = Switzerland
