Thanks Frank. So am I correct that there would be a sender in each tank, however many tanks there are, as well as a monitor on each side? I'm trying to understand the pennycap system to get a better idea on what it would take to put in the CiES senders and a new fuel gauge.

Do you have a parts catalog. All the info will be in their. I sold my 73P model in 1994 cant remember that far back

Why not install a FF totalizer and forget about the analog gauges? Analogs are only good for govt work - Only have to be correct when tanks are empty!

Yeah when I'm ready to redo the panel I'm going to be looking at a totalizer and primary engine monitor to replace the cluster. But after my annual, that will probably be a project for next year. In the meantime I'm trying to figure out of the inop gauge is truly shot or if there is a simple fix to get it going again.

Parts catalog is free to DL from Textron: https://ww2.txtav.com/TechnicalPubli...s/Book?PN=P607

You'll have to register for a free account before you can DL.

Thank for this. Quite surprised that anything from Textron/Cessna would be free...

Yes, and because of this fair assumption, several less-than-upstanding internet pilots shops are RE-SELLING these free downloads for $29.95, all the time with a smile and a straight face! Don't get duped into buying what you can have for free. Otherwise I have an Oxygen Intake permit here to sell you!
