As my husband pointed out, we had the similar problem with the fuel flow well beyond the fuel stop because of a failure of an aneroid bellows getting stuck (I am not a pilot, but this is what I recall him telling me). Our plane was at 47.5 gallons per hour and he said the plane was shaking horribly when he throttled back. He also was at 100 foot above the ground and I was watching the take off. The black smoke did NOT appear until he was off the ground around 50-100 feet. Does the breakdown of the avionics indicate when the switch was turned on? Again, I am just the wife, just asking to learn the issues, as this situation occurred twice to my husband in one day while trying to figure out the cause of the smoke and shaking. Susan Brunner
