Hi Joe, Tim down in Redding. Congratulations on getting your project started. Just wondering what you are using for an oil level sensor. This has come up recently and it’s something I would like to have on my project. I’m still following the rotary progress and  would like to go that route but have recently purchased a Lycoming L   I came across a good used one at a fair price and current plan is to get the plane flying and then convert later, after you work out all the bugs for me J !

Hey Tim,

The oil level sensor is a standard Mazda sensor that is in the oil pan. If I recall it is float operated and the lead goes to ground when the oil is low. I’ve got it hooked up to an LED on my instrument panel.

My son may be going back to college in Redding in January. If so, I’ll try to remember to look you up and take a look at your Cozy.
